Can the games administrators learn from this.?

After three days, the Test between Bangladesh and England is fascinatingly poised. Regardless of how it turns out, it has already been - by a country mile - more interesting than many a high-scoring draw. The pendulum of advantage has swung back and forth several times, and there's almost certainly more than one swing to come.

Which brings me to my point about administrators. As a general rule, moderate-scoring games are a better spectacle than high-scoring ones. The game is so much more when there is a genuine contest between bat and ball, rather than when bowlers are mere cannon-fodder.

So why is it that so many (too many?) pitches are prepared in such a way that all the advantages are stacked with the batsmen? Is there any chance of the game's administrators grasping the fact that this is a grievous error?

    They should learn from it. I also asked a Q about it, why can't cricket be fair to bowlers?

    Shoaib Akhtar in his autobiography wrote "...cricket is in too much favor of the batsmen". Bowlers have to do all that hard work. Batsmen nowadays have no worries whatsoever.

    Administrators can surely solve this, ICC should send their own curators in every game. Venues should be managed by ICC officials and not the board of the hosting country.
