I remember hearing Waqar's commentary the other day and he was criticising the use of the kookaburra stating that it was not suitable for the subcontinent tracks. According to him the kookaburra was suited for Australia and South Africa where the pitches are quicker whereas in the slower tracks of the SC once the ball gets softer there is barely anything for the bowlers, it does not turn and bounce and is harder to reverse and it also does not come on to the bat nicely. The duke ball remains harder and thus offers more to everyone when it is older as compared to the kookaburra. He said we should go back to using the duke ball like they did in his days, India also use the SG ball which remains harder and is thus more suitable for spin and reverse swing.
