Yeah I agree brad should always be wickets first. Doesn't really annoy me that much but can be confusing if the score is 3/2 or in Victoria's case last week 6/9  ::). Whenever I'm asked the score I say wickets first eg  one for seventy rather than seventy for one

haha they were just showing Michael Clarke they could do it too! ...but with the bat instead

You get your points from runs... if you don't score any runs, because your shower (note- not necessarily because the bowler's any good), you physically can't win. Even if your bowling is amazing, and you get them all out for 10, if your batting is shower house and your team all get run out for a total of 6, you're going to lose.

Thats a poor call.

If your bowlers suck shower then the other team will score 500 and whatever your batsmen do is irrelevant. Plus, you need to take 20 wickets to win a test match plain and simple. If you don't do that, you'll never win a match.

Not really, if your batsmen are amazing.

and you don't need to take wickets, there's a set time limit on cricket games for a reason.

Yeah, you need to bowl the other team out twice (or have them declare stupidly early which rarely happens) to win a test match. Otherwise you'll lose or draw. If you run out of time and the side chasing is still batting it ends in a draw..
