Ian Healy wants the ICC to take action after Indian curators once again scuppered Australia's preparation.
The following day, coaches and staffers had organised for the Australian team to use the same pitch at VCA Stadium for some much-needed centre-wicket practice, on what would have been a fourth-day Test wicket.
The tourists have essentially been robbed of necessary training ahead of the second Test in Delhi on Friday. "It's really embarrassing, the scuppering of our plans to get some practice sessions on that Nagpur wicket.Healy now wants the sport's global governing body to act, and ensure such incidents do not happen in future.
"For them to water the wicket unceremoniously when it was requested for practice is horrible and that has to improve."
