RIP Test Cricket

RIP Test Cricket.

1877 – 2010

It was killed today at SSC, Colombo mercilessly by Kumar Sangakara and company in quest of meaningless batting records, personal batting milestones.

They were miffed with the Test cricket for following reasons:

·         No Murali to play for to take 20 wikats.
·         No tests to play in Australia and South Africa
·         Inability to win fair contested games where scores do not exceed 400.

Next heard of they are arranging a mini world cup in their backyard consisting of Zim, BD, Kenya and Scotland so that they could plunder 500 runs in ODIs too and somebody break Sachin Tendulkar’s record of 200 runs in ODIs by scoring 250 or even 300.

Hey TS,

I am totally with you.I inspite of being a big big test cricket fan,hated the day today.It is such meaningless batting and flat wickets which SL have always had,and it is killing test cricket.The Lankan brand of ricket is a disgrace on test cricket.

Cheers,
