The third Test between India and South Africa is proving to be an excellent ice breaker for cricketers around the world. Glenn Maxwell and Matthew Hayden first took to Twitter to slam the Nagpur pitch, then Michael Clarke and Herschelle Gibbs had a disagreement on what is the ideal Test pitch.
Two of Australia’s World Cup winning players, Glenn Maxwell and Aaron Finch were involved in an interesting conversation on Twitter, which all started with the Nagpur pitch and the conditions in India.
