Former India cricketer Sadagoppan Ramesh said "BCCI must take notice of a pitch that's tailored only for the batters" after Abhishek Sharma scored double ton in Punjab inter-district match. Although he praised Abhishek's double ton, he added, "If an out-of-form player comes back to India and straightaway scores 233(91), questions about the pitches at home must be asked again."
