Test cricket crowds are declining in all countries because it is simply a boring game.People who want to spend 8 hours of their spare time on a day at the cricket to watch a handful of highlights seriously havnt got much of a life

What a silly comment.We have been dominating world cricket for the best part of 20 years and just because we loose a couple of ODI series you call us chokers.I guess you can expect much sense coming from a bomber supporter

Yep I am in as SHIVA25

Youve got to be kidding.Sitting through a 5 test match series is as boring as watching grass grow and you want to extend it by another 4.You seriously havnt got a life if your going to sit through summer watching boring test cricket. I thank christ we have the EPL to get us through the summer as...

Probably will be but whether he is going to be any good is still to be proven.

Read this carefully : YOUR A D1CKHEAD

Get a clue mate. Mcgrath and Warne took 10 wickets between them in the last test and went a long way to us winning the match

If you say so

You clearly have no idea when you come up with comments like that. You cant expect 6s and 4s of every ball and with Australia cruising after Gillys innings there was no need to push the issue and risk loosing unnesesary wickets.The crowds behavour was untolerable due to their own stupidity

He is probably the best one day player in the world at the moment but he has had his chances at test level and isnt quite up to it.

Netherlands shouldnt even be in the WC as they are only a bunch of part time hacks.Seriously how boring would a game be if you play one of these minnow sides who have to end up chasing scores of 400+.

Why is it so important we get a bonus point anyway.Its looks as if were going to make the finals so why bother bringing it up.

Problem is many dreamteams are going to be very similar due to the lack of players involved

] How did you come to the conclusion i know nothing about cricket? I have watched enough of it to know that for 85% of a test match nothing happens.Would you care to tell me how plenty happens in a game and what to look for as you so put it so that the next time i decide to watch a game i...

The reason crowds dont do mexican waves at test matches is because the crowds are mentally drained from bordom for the mere fact that not a lot happens for about 85% of the time where as at last nights game the atmosphere was exciting as there was something happening virtually every ball which...

I think its here to stay for the mere fact its a good money spinner for cricket.They got nearly 40000 there last night and would of made some good dollars out of it. Test cricket is the best form of cricket but it is far too boring to watch for the whole 5 days and 20/20 cricket is a good...

Disagree.Its only going to take Warne and Mcgrath to retire before we start to see huge cracks in the side.They have been a huge part of Australias success over the last 10 years and there is no one who is remotely even half as good as those 2 who look like taking their place.I think our batting...

Thats 75% of your life youve wasted away.

I think you might be missing the point as to why so many games are boring. You see cricket is the most boring game you could ever watch apart from the odd one day game.Watching Warne bowl and Gilchrist bat at test level is about the only reason you would watch test cricket these days because it...

Lee is and has been the most overated hack for many years now and the Aussie selectors are only picking him because he can bowl fast.I was watching him last night and he bowls far too wide and hardly makes the batsman play.

Test cricket & most one day games are pretty boring affairs these days not to mention the time involved to complete games and i am convinced that 20/20 cricket has been introduced to keep the excitement there from a spectators piont of view wherby they can go to a game and see some exciting...

The selectors were justified in dropping Lehman as his form was ordinary to say the least coupled with the fact he is an ageing cricketer.We need to blood younger talent to ensure our cricket side stays successful.We have a heap of young cricketers who are playing domestic cricket who are good...

Shannen Noll looks like he is stooping to desperate measures to keep his career going by putting together this pathetic new version.I am starting to think this music industry is not that hard to crack when youve got someone like shannon Noll who has a sh1t voice and keeps coming up with remakes...

Re: Re: Vics - are you sure 710 is enough? So just because the Vics batted well it turned into a boring game did it?Who said it had to be an interesting game?How many 5 day games are interesting anyway? The fact that QLD wernt good enough to bowl the Vics out made it a boring affair and...

At least India have fought back to a post a respectable score.If it had of been the Zimbos they would have all been out for around 100

One of the most pathetic ODI games i have seen Again a lamentable performance from the zimbos who proved yet again they that they are not up to scratch and should be sent home to avoid further embarassment

Re: Re: Send Zimbabwe home That is exactly my point.In the soccer world cup teams have to qualify to earn a spot to play off in the world cup just like Zimbabwe should be made to qualify to play against some of the best nations in the world like Australia

Your a complete d1ckhead.I will repeat it again because i think your having trouble understanding, "They were never going to win those games".Its obvious had they not lost those wickets at the end they might of won but the reason they lost those wickets was because they were well behind the run...

If you bothered to notice they have never looked like winning a game all summer regardless of the last 3 games they have played.Yeh sure the end result may have been close but the bottom line is they never looked like winning those games at any stage of the match

In those 2 so called close games you have mentioned they were never in any position to win those games as they were miles behind the run rate required all day
