After the low-scoring match in Delhi, the fans can look forward to a run feast in the fourth cricket one-dayer between India and Australia here with the pitch curator predicting that the two teams’ combined score could be in excess of 550 on Monday.
"The wicket will have a good bounce and carry. One can expect runs in excess of 550 on this wicket," Chairman of the BCCI’s Grounds and Pitches Committee and Punjab Cricket Association’s Chief Curator Daljit Singh said.
India lead the series 2-1 after winning the third one-dayer in Delhi where the Aussies could only post 229 after opting to bat first.
Daljit said the PCA has tried a new grass variety for the wicket, which has been imported from the US.
"We didn’t have such a grass cover for the past decade or so. However, it won’t be a green top wicket, but there will be some grass. It will be a typical Mohali wicket which will stay the same as the game progresses," he said.
