Haha yeah that is true. Obviously it'd be different for other countries but to England and Australia it means so much because of the massive rivalry. The Aus vs NZ series is kinda like that too but New Zealand these days aren't competitve enough to make it big. It SHOULD be every kid's dream to put on the baggy green, I play cricket and obviously the dream would be to play the boxing day test (I probably never will hahaha:LOL:). Yeah it is a shame, so many people say that test cricket is boring. It's probably one of the most demanding sports, so much concentration is needed in teset cricket.

haha NOTHING compares to ashes cricket. As Michael Vaughan one said "theres cricket, then theres ashes cricket" and its so true... thats probably the only thing thats keeping test cricket alive. if i played cricket there would seriously be nothing better than representing my country in a test match against england, shame all people our age dont think the same.

Yeah he probably is which is a shame. Mhmm I know what you mean and really it reflects the majority of the Australian public. Unless you're absolutely cricket mad no one turns up for test matches anymore, there attendances to 20/20's is way higher than tests and that is a shame. Kids these days grow up wanting to play the shorter form rather than test mtaches which is really where the glory and fame should be. It would be a shame if test cricket started to decline, it's traditional I mean nothing beats it. An OD world cup doesn't compare to a good fought out Ashes contest:awesome:!

haha yep, he shouldve been given more of a chanc, but i think hes past his peak now, time for younger kids. The other main problem with the Aussies is that they are producing one day or 20/20 players, no one is interested in tests anymore. all the newer players getting selected are older players because they find the other 2 more interesting. i really hope test cricket doesnt fall in Australia, or anywhere for that matter, because cricket wont be the same without it !
