Hello everyone. I'm an ignorant of cricket.
Can anyone please tell me what the follwing means:
"Today grass has sprouted through the top soil but not expected to
play a major role yet."
I mean how grass grow in pitch? My understanding was that pitch is a specially
prepared turf for cricket. And how the existance of grass affects the game?
Thank you in advance.

yes pitches are not as naked as you think. they do have grass on them, and the grass is especially helpful for fast bowlers - it gets them bounce as well as some movement off the pitch. however, this growth is definitely not as big as the one u see in the outfield.
