Ravi Shastri reckons it's not the normal Kochi pitch but is a bit slower. The pitch will be slow and sticky and will get slower as the match progresses, he says.
He believes that the captain winning the toss must bat first and put a big score because it won't be easy to bat in the second half of the match.
