NEW DELHI: Experienced speedster Mohammed Shami on Saturday said that the pitch being used for the World Test Championship final against Australia was not fully ready for a game of that magnitude. Shami is the second India player to come down hard at the Oval track. India all-rounder Shardul Thakur had called The Oval pitch underprepared.
"In Test matches, pitches tend to get slower as the game goes on. But I don't think this pitch was fully prepared for World Test Championship final. It was not fully ready but day by day it does change in a Test match," said Shami after stumps on day four.
