Let's see...
If it were for man's team, Perth is almost invincible. It's the fastest track in the world. The Pacers get a great amont of carry and bounce off the deck.

I still don't know what any of that means.

Here I'm talking about the pitch (the 22 yards deck in the middle of cricket grounds). The pitch has a lot of influence in the game of Cricket for unlike baseball the ball hits the turf before reaching to the batsmen. Because it hits the surface, it gets variety of help from off the surface. It may outswing, inswing, bounce more, stay low, spin both ways, hold on or skid.
So, a pitch that's helpful for the bowlers gonna see less number of runs . A team that has strong bowling unit wins more on such pitches.
The Gabba (the Perth) pitch is one of the fastest pitches in the world. It helps fast bowlers a lot. The carry and bounce of the deck (pitch) is noteworthy here.

Ok, I didn't realize "deck" and "pitch" referred to the same thing or that decks varied across locations.
