'"If I had to push a case it would be to get more slower, tired wickets," [Steve O'Keefe] said.

"It annoys me because we have this focus on 'we want to get better against the Dukes balls' ... we'll put a bigger seam on [the Kookaburra], or we'll green the wickets up.

"When it comes to spin we expect we can dump a young kid in like Swepson or Ashton and go 'righto, win the game for Australia', but they don't get opportunities to [at domestic level]."'

'"I see flat pitches as a huge problem for the health of cricket," [Langer] said. "I've said this for 10, 15 or 20 years, for the health of Test cricket, first-class cricket and even one-day cricket you want to play on wickets where there's a contest between bat and ball. It's been very well documented what happened at the MCG this week, but I know they are trying to push it so they get a contest back because we don't want to see cricket anywhere in the world, in my opinion, on flat wickets which are batsman-dominated, it's just not spectacle.

"The pink ball under lights is trying to keep some great life in Test cricket, but the most important thing for me is to get the wickets right so there's a contest between bat and ball. Hopefully everyone around the world, whether it's spin, seam, swing, pace and bounce, whatever it is, give the characteristic of giving the bowler some hope because we want spectacle in all cricket, it's entertainment. We don't want to see really flat wickets."'

Spoken like a guy who doesn’t have to face Pat Cummins at his peak.

But that's exactly how cricket administrators should not think, and how they got into this death spiral in the first place.

It's not supposed to be a handicap game. You shoud not artificially blunt good bowlers and give handicaps to all the incompetent batsmen.


On Langer's debut against the WIndies, he got hit in the helmet.
