I do not care for either of those teams at all. Unless Tendulkar, Dravid, Ganguly, Dev, Ambrose, Lara and Walsh were to make comebacks I probably won't go.

Say what? :o We are giving up a Test Match during the summer for a qtr final you saying? :o

Who is coming over for the 2014/15 summer anyway, i imagine it would be a shorter summer as we have the WC starting whilst the ODI's would normally be running.


Actually, this is the perfect time to please South Africa, and play the Boxing Day match over there, something they've been wanting to do for a very long time, but Australia always wanting Boxing Day at home, has never allowed us to play 5 test series against the best country in the world.

Mate, I just heard this debated, seems silly and stupid like wtf, but this is what they argued over!

Yeah I didn't get it either, we know two matches can be played at an oval at least once a year? ???

Yeah India is the only team coming over with only a 4 test match series before the World Cup. Means that Adelaide misses out on a test.

[tbagrocks]

Yeah i'm not up to date with it, are you saying in Oz that summer, we get only four test matches?

If so, who do I kill and how slowly should I do it?

flower you t20 you aren't even cricket! Can't believe Test cricket would suffer at all, who the frog responsible for this in Oz?
