"Featherbed"?

Well, according to Cricinfo, "India make hay on a featherbed" as they march on to 180 or so for 1. Really? I thought featherbeds didn't have the kind of bounce this wicket has shown. Its hard, true, and a good batting track, but its not a "featherbed". And India have batted well, and England have not bowled particularly well at times. Its not just about it being a "featherbed". Giving credit where its due and all that.
