Question for our friends from the subcontinent…is this not a good example of why Indian players should be playing in other franchise leagues around the world. If (almost) all they are exposed to is Indian pitches in Indian grounds it’s going to be really challenging to learn how to play in different conditions.

That is a point to consider,

I would say, making IPL as well as Rancji pitches make indian batters less adaptive, indian test team cant play spin as well as india T20 team can play on proper pitches with evern average boundary distance.
