It’s an attempt to understand how

However, clay is generally present in larger amounts; its total contributions to the physical, chemical, and mineralogical properties of soil will usually equal or even exceed those of humus.

Cricket Pitch Soil Mineralogy: The DNA of Cricket Pitch Profile,d provides a template that defines the morphological, physical, chemical, and biological behaviour of a cricket pitch. The quantity and quality of clay minerals present in the pitch soil determine the behaviour of the pitches as the match progresses. The desirable behaviour of a cricket pitch in any

The exclusive colloidal behaviour desired for the pitch comes in the form of high swelling and shrinking capacities, good cohesive soil structure, plasticity, elasticity, high water holding capacity (WHC),

Cricket Pitch Grass: The Science Behind the Art of Turf Pitch Making, through evapotranspiration (nearly four inches of pitch surface) and by giving the pitch soil a firm structure (with a high combined tensile and shear strength). The turf acts as the skeleton of a pitch profile, which provides a firm shape and structure to it. The deep-rooted grass acts as a skelet
