Thoroughly enjoyed all the matches of the T20 series. Breathtaking, Seesaw battles. It's no wonder why T20 is a hit among majority of Cricket fans.
 
WI vs SL is a snoozefest, but can you say the same about Pak v Eng? Or the upcoming Ind v Eng? Aus v SA a few months ago?

Test >> T20.

However, the AFG vs BAN series has indeed been a cracker.
 
Test cricket is only interesting when it is played in Eng, SA or Aus. It sometimes gets interesting on the 5th day in UAE. Other than that it is more boring than watching paint dry.
 
T20 you can watch for 1 hour. and get result.

I love test cricket, but will not waste my time on a game WI vs SL where there is no exciting batsman or bowler to watch.
 
WI v SL is not the best showcase of the Test format like the NZ v WI series was of the T20 format a few months ago.

Test and T20 fans need to quit insulting each other. People have different tastes and whereas before Test cricket was popular, now T20 attracts bigger audiences due to the shorter nature of the game and entertainment.

When people go to the cinema, some want to see a thriller, some like comedy, others prefer sci-fi. Who cares ?
 
I tried watching WI vs SL live yesterday and I almost fell asleep. Excited about catching some BD vs AFG highlights tonight.

Thats the only purpose left of Test Cricket, it is an effective cure for Insomnia and should be recommended to people with sleeping difficulties.
 
Well I have followed the West Indies vs Sri Lanka test more than the Bangladesh vs Afghanistan series. Probably because I like players from both Sri Lanka and West Indies.

Personally I also love watching test cricket but there is no point of wasting time on test cricket other than pak vs eng ind vs SA SA vs Aus or Eng vs Australia only in SA or England
Matches in UAE or in South Asia are boring
 
Why do we have to compare the two? Both of the formats have their own unique place. T20 can be watched fully end to end whereas in test cricket you are not supposed to watch each and every session.

Tell that to the Test fans.

For them respecting T20 fans is an unacceptable outcome. Equality is an insult.

If you think you are superior, equality becomes unacceptable.

They won't use neutral analogies. Despite the reality of quality vs quantity, we have them arguing on the quantity side with all manner of stupid analogies fine dining vs fast food, love affair vs quickie, classic novel vs cheap thriller etc etc.
 
Bangladesh has always been a great team to watch. They always play an aggressive brand of cricket which is why they get a lot of attention from the neutral supporters.


India, Australia, England and Bangladesh r very few reams that r exciting to watch.
