Some wicket in Nagpur for #INDvSA. India lead by 136 after scoring 215 in the 1st dig. Love to read the match referees report. #minefield— Trent Johnston (@Green23) November 26, 2015

How disappointing it is to see the quality of Test Cricket reduced to what we are witnessing #INDvsSA @StarSportsIndia #justnotcricket— Matthew Hayden AM (@HaydosTweets) November 26, 2015
This Nagpur pitch has taken the idea of home advantage to a level where it's no longer a contest between bat and ball— Sambit Bal (@sambitbal) November 26, 2015
It's called Test Cricket because it tests the skills of the various disciplines. Not seeing much of this at the moment #heavilyfavouringspin— Robin John Peterson (@robbie13flair) November 26, 2015
