Test Cricket to get a face lift

About time it happened...I have stated earlier too that test cricket is definetley the real deal


International Cricket Council (ICC) has said it expects day-night test cricket within two years and described a world test cricket championship as a "work in progress".

Reuters reports that ICC president David Morgan said yesterday: "I'd be be "surprised" if we don't see day-night test cricket within the next two years - surprised and disappointed."


The test cricket world championship is a bit further away from seeing the light of day. "The test championship is best described as a work in progress," ICC chief executive Haroon Lorgat said yesterday.

"We are aspiring to create some sort of test championships model and a working group was set up at the last chief executives' meeting on December 1 in Dubai. They will put together concepts for a test championship and we hope to consider a proposal at our next meeting in February."

Lorgat also said the ICC was aiming to reduce the amount of top level cricket matches played from next year.

3 tests going on and...

.....all 3 seem to be heading for a result.I think it's absolutley brilliant.
Test match cricket is the only type of cricket i really follow.

New Zealand Vs Pakistan, Australia Vs West Indies and India Vs Srilanka all most probably will end with a victory for one team.

Considering as per a recent poll that test cricket interest in India is at a paltry 7% i think eliminating draws is the first step to bringing up the popularity.
