Kieron Pollard Hits Out At Poor Pitches After ODI Series Loss To Australia

By IANS News July 27, 2021 • 21:37 PM View: 2259

West Indies skipper Kieron Pollard has hit out at the quality of pitches laid for the ongoing ODI series against Australia after the Caribbean side lost the series 2-1 here. Two of the matches saw teams batting first score less than 200 while in one, the team batting first, Australia barely managed to cross 250, scoring 252/9.

"Coming here to Barbados, I think both teams struggled on the pitch and I think that's unacceptable for international cricket," Pollard said after the third ODI that Windies lost by six wickets to lose series.
