Indian all-rounder Shardul Thakur has voiced concerns over the batting-friendly pitches in the Indian Premier League (IPL), advocating for more balanced conditions that offer bowlers a fair chance. After being unsold in the initial IPL auction, Thakur was later recruited by Lucknow Super Giants as a replacement for the injured Mohsin Khan. Seizing the opportunity, he delivered impressive performances, taking six wickets in two games and leading the race for the Purple Cap. Thakur emphasized the need for pitches that provide equal opportunities for both batsmen and bowlers to maintain the competitive integrity of the game. (PC: News18)
