Ravi Shastri’s words

“It will turn but the question is, how quickly? How long will they keep it in the oven? They kept it a bit long for this time,”

He further added,

“True. I think a lot of spectators around the world would want that. Batters of both teams would want that,”.

He said this because Hayden wanted to give the batters some time to show their skill. Hayden said,

“It will be really nice to see a pitch that allows both of these great batting units to showcase their skills and abilities,” 

As per reports, no directives has passed to the curators on the pitch by the team management. It is likely to be a batting first wicket and turning in the later time of the test.
