Top teams such as India and England all play most of their domestic cricket in flat pitches. Australia don't but outside the what top 6 or 7 batters in the country or so, there's not that much depth. Surely death bowling and stuff get improved on when quicks are under huge stress to not get smashed.
Indian FC pitches aren't flat like before and I can't speak for England. English conditions are challenging for batsmen, lot more movement, so they are forced become better. India has 20% of the world's population, just going by law of average, they will have more guys who are good. SL doesn't have large talent pools. Making the pitch difficult for the batsmen will allow them to get good and be more disciplined. Disciplined batsmen are generally good. I'm not a fast bowler so I can't really talk for the fast bowlers on flat pitches, my thinking is not to have them bowl on dead pitches in FC a lot and get injured. SL fast bowlers are very injury prone, so that's what my thinking is. For spinners, flat pitches are good, it forces them to beat batsmen in flight and accuracy.
I mean in t20 not fc. In fc, I`m not sure what the best way to go is
