    @Welwyn India A v England A - 3rd Unofficial 4 day Test - at Madras - 1991/2 Pitch: 62 - A well prepared pitch which should play pretty well at least for the first 3 days, with just enough life to encourage the fast bowlers at the start. The wicket is expected to take a bit of spin late in the...
