One of the reasons why crowds come to venues is to see the big names perform well and if they see the ball turn viciously from the first session, then it is an indication to them that the batsmen are going to have a tough day in the middle and when their prediction does comes true, then it becomes a damp squib for them.
An ideal day for an Indian supporter is to see India bat on the day he/she is at the venue and their favourite star get among the runs. Not that they don’t enjoy the bowlers dominate proceedings, but fours and sixes are just a lot more appealing to the normal Indian spectator as compared to a bowler doing well and picking up wickets.
