PERTH CRICKET STADIUM THE FASTEST PITCH ON EARTH




PERTH CRICKET STADIUM IN AUSTRALIA THE FASTEST TRACK ON EARTH

WACA, PerthWestern AustraliaDeemed as the hardest & fastest cricket pitch in the world, batsman have to be good on horizontal bat shots to survive here. Unlike most of Aussie stadiums with huge spectators stands, Perth cricket ground has a capacity of merely 22 thousand people, enjoying cricket on the grass stands or the temporary seatings. India have played 2 test matches here & lost them both.
