Well said. The 'Multipurpose' Ground on which India played Holland yesterday looked like it really had a lot of purposes! The bounce was very inconsistent.
Also, the mindset of the players from big teams playing minnows in these unofficial matches is not easy to fathom. Most individual players will probably to trying to get used to the local conditions and get their eyes in; the minnows on the other hand, might be going all out to seize their moment of glory, knowing that there might not be another later when things get serious. To that extent, these results are irrlelevant.
