no mate thats just one day cricket...test cricket the match lasts five days, no limit on number of balls that can be bowled except you must get through at least ninety overs a day. the team which can bowl the other side out twice for the lowest score wins, its not that hard.

you dont ask someone to do calculus before they have mastered trig....

you gotta generate interest in the one day game first and them a small % of that population might be interested in learning about test cricket....

and even i will admit...other than the ashes...most test cricket is boring

ooooh major disagreement there...I prefer all test cricket to one day cricket. Just me tho, recent test series among a bunch of different countries have been nailbiting. One day i really couldnt care less if we win or lose by ten wickets

i live in America man....its hard enough to get to watch a regular 1 day here...let alone test cricket....

to generate interest in test cric...its GOTTA be on the radio and on the teli....so ya watch an hour in the morning...go to work but listen on the radio at work...and then wind down at the end of the day by watching again....

cant do that here in America
