5 day cricket is a stupid game played by stupid people for even more stupid people who dont know they are stupid! do you know how many houses can be ligthed by the quantum of electricity used spent in day and night matches!! do you know how many villages in our country dont have power!!! then why do you watch this stupid game to enrich some good for nothing people (players).

Day and night matches
by siddhartha srivastava on Dec 14, 2007 03:33 PM

Yes ofcourse day-night matches for test should be encouraged. Remember last match between India and Pakistan where India had to be satisfied with a draw due to bad light? Such eventualities will be minimised with day and night matches. Spectators deserve value for money and they will sure get it if the matches are day and night.

even day and night -one day match should be banned to save the electricity.

Leave something to the next generations..even if we are not doing something.

Ban test cricket
by Ram Sharma on Dec 14, 2007 03:30 PM

ban test cricket and one day cricket. 20 - 20 is ok, or may b one should try 15 - 15 to reduce match time.

cricket is a big drain on indian economy and highly profitable for players, broadcasters and cricket boards only. in addition test cricket and one day cricket is highly time consuming and wastage of time for many people.

cricket was banned in usa long back.

Keep test cricket the way it is
by Hardik Radia on Dec 14, 2007 03:27 PM

No need to have day night test matches... Already we have T20 matches. Its better to keep the test matches in its purest form... A lot of changes wont help the game. I dont know if this issue is taken to increase the audience but its better to play test matches as it is...

because five day math is just like having test tube baby.try hard but hardly any sucessful results.
but 1 day is like have baby in 1 attempt & short time.

Because in the 5 day match, it actually tests bowling and batting skills of an indidvual, so the name test match is preferred over 5 day match :)
