CHANDIGARH: For years, the Mohali track has been a delight for the faster bowlers. This was one of the rare Indian pitches which many overseas pace bowlers, including former Australia speedster Brett Lee would proudly endorse as a pace-friendly wicket.
A couple of years ago, Lee, who has 310 Test wickets, had cited the example of the Mohali track while urging curators to prepare sporting pitches, if India wanted to boast of quality quicks in their ranks. Lee explained that the pacers running in the heat hardly get any incentives, like the slower bowlers at the other end, who return a handful every match.
