Shah demands better batting surfaces
After attending both the India match yesterday and the South Africa-Sri Lanka match today, Jay Shah has demanded better batting surfaces from all venues from the remainder of the series. "The purist might enjoy watching batters try to survive, but that's not what we do in the IPL and that's not what we should be doing here. I am confident that the curators at these stadiums will be able to meet the standard that the ICC expects in the remaining matches."

After the first round of matches, we can see New Zealand, England and South Africa in urgent need of victories in their upcoming matches. Will Jay Shah's mandate for improved batting conditions help these teams?

We were pretty rusty at the start giving away 124 runs for just 3 wickets but our spinners brought us right back into the game once Nishant castled Yuvraj . Batsmen did a sensible job of playing risk free. Would have loved to see Arshin get a look in but can't complain about a comprehensive win.

Shah demands better batting surfaces

After attending both the India match yesterday and the South Africa-Sri Lanka match today, Jay Shah has demanded better batting surfaces from all venues from the remainder of the series. "The purist might enjoy watching batters try to survive, but that's not what we do in the IPL and that's not what we should be doing here. I am confident that the curators at these stadiums will be able to meet the standard that the ICC expects in the remaining matches."
Oh wow! The stories section in the league. Its been a while I saw something like that. Was fun when I started it back in the day with ODI Revival Championship. Keep 'em coming!
 
Tough going for USA23 v WI23. But that was expected. Still I think this team can do better.

@Aislabie can you tag the relevant team managers when you posted the matches? Or at least me?
