India took home advantage concept to an ugly level. It was basically shameless tactics at a level that even Pakistan wouldnt do (and we know those folks would do anything to win including biting balls). Shameless tactics arent uncommon in the world of cricket. Usually when those things happen, such as the under arm ball by trevor chappel it pushes people to rethink the laws and make changes. This series might also result in such a law change regarding pitches. So congrats India! You win this round over Pakistan in terms of shameless desire to win.

As for us, we have a bit more dignity, we will take home advantage but wont push it to a shameless level even if we lose...rest assured we wont be opening threads in the India fans forum praising a bowler who needs crutches (a hyper dust bowl) to pick decent amount of wickets

But really... as Austin would point out...who are we to complain? India produces 90% of the revenue and so we should be grateful India isnt making it mandatory to make 90% of away pitches to be prepared by indian curators.
