Test The Test - Season 2 (Amazon Prime)

The Test - Season 2 documentary is now available to watch.

Here’s the trailer

Looking forward to watching some over the weekend. Loved season 1, especially the fallout from sandpaper gate and the 2019 UK ashes which had so much great drama. Not sure if this will be as good as season 1 but hoping it is intriguing. Anyone watched any yet?

Dave Warner does successfully pronounce the word "compartmentalised" during episode 1.

Only 4 episodes which is a bit of a letdown compared to the 8 for season 1 (2x Ashes, 1x Pakistan 1x Sri Lanka).

Halfway through the first episode and Marnus putting his toastie straight in the fridge will be hard to top us the biggest wtf moment

only 4 episodes? or is this "part 1" of season 2?

They skipped over Tim Paine's exit pretty quick. And nice of them to use his ghostwriter to speak on his behalf.

Also a missed opportunity to not have something from Marcus Harris when he was dropped. They alluded to it with a two second shot of Khawaja with Harris in the background, but that's it.

Just checked and it’s capped at 4 episodes.

Batsmen throwing tantrums on their return to the pavilion is nothing new but I got a laugh out of seeing how angry Warner, Smith and to a lesser extent Marnus were when they were dismissed in Sri Lanka during episode 4.

The older generation will probably use the term "kumbya" to describe the environment Pat Cummins wants for this team. The true test of Cummins and his team will come in India and England.

Aggers, Isa Guha, Gideon Haigh, Peter Lalor, Isabelle Westbury spoke normally while Gerard Whatley made everything sound so dramatic.

Marnus putting a toasted sandwich in the freezer will not be beaten for a wtf moment.

It was nice to see how much it meant for this team to tour Pakistan early in 2022. England and New Zealand backed out of playing in Pakistan in 2021. Had Australia followed suit, it would have been a kick in the guts for Pakistan but, thankfully, the tour passed without incident.

England and New Zealand have now toured Pakistan safely which means India is the only country that will have misgivings about playing in Pakistan but they seem political more than anything else.

Finished it. Thought episode 3 was the best of the lot by a fair margin. Not saying it was bad or anything but it was overall a bit meh.

Don’t forget Travis Head throwing his bat across the room into the lockers. Was surprised how emotional Green was after he got out, looked like he was in tears.

Decided to watch season 1 before the release of season 2 and just finished it.

Now starting season 2.

That was bizarre.

 

[Seedsfan]

Hope they make season 3, India, World Test championship then the Ashes

 

[FRUMPY]

Was ok, not as good as the first season (to be expected, that was a first insight and this is a weaker follow up)

Still good watching though, love behind the scenes stuff, Pakistan series was good.

What I always get out of it is how much they treat their equipment like shit when they are getting it for free....

And smith and Labuschagne are great fodder

The call of duty probably my favourite part, how much they love how shit Cummins is [emoji1787][emoji1787]

Eating toasties and playing Call of Duty, FMD I think I will pass.

I want to see one where they get on the booze 1989 Ashes style.

 

[CURVE]

I've watched the first three episodes and have enjoyed, it's not quite as good as the first series but it still very good.

I'm enjoying Ussie having a larger role, he is an interesting character.

Hope they sack the company that did the subtitles for it. Constantly wrong, or just [indistinct] chucked in, when it’s clear what was said.

**** i wish I could phone in my job like that

 

[Ephemeral Hope]

Jeez heartbreaking for Maxwell. His almost selection in the sri lanka series was so so so rough on him. the media talked him up the whole time. No chance of him going to India with his leg too

 

[Blue Arrow]

Good watch. A bit light on the controversies but seeing how we are in the new Cummins Positive Era that was to be expected.

Is there much of zampa n stoinis

Genuine serial killer behaviour, Marnus needs to have a good hard look at himself and ask ‘is this how I want to be remembered’.
