Who the hell told ya we r classy (ye tumko kaun bola ki apun log classy)  The truth is we find test matches at the highest level great to watch and hence some of us call them classy. 

 

Its funny though, the broad range of comparisons & mentions this thread brought about. Film, technology, art, porn and what not 

 

in this same thread only

@mancalledsting said those who like T20 more are simpletons

He talked about attributes, that's not the same thing as everyone is a simpleton and he even explained that 

 

I bet there's people here like me who are using the swap button on the tv remote between IPL playout & the test match. Talk about classy simpletons

Yep, huge difference. Typical uninterrupted test cricket ~ 450 overs while T20 is at most 40 overs. More than a factor of 11. 

 

That probably means your type of genome will evolve into supporters of F-5 where 5 deliveries are the typical attention span and T20 seems grandpa's cricket aka funeral. And then they'll spout retarded nonsense like the era of ABDV & Sachin played amateur cricket just like your opinions of Holding & Lillee's era. 

Well let us take an extreme example in the other direction. Why have test matches for 5 days only. Why not 50 days/ Let us make it a year long game? I dont think 5 days is enough. It does not test endurance. I want the game for full year.

 

You cannot carry a discourse without putting others down.

 

Anyway the endurance and skill stuff for a test I am not buying it. I dont know your exposure but I can categorically say cricket players the worst athletes of all the major sports.

FYI freedom of speech also implies others can call u simpleton or having such tendencies. 

 

And what's this technology nonsense you're pulling up for comparison time and again ? Shouldn't you be then playing EA sports cricket on your computer which is way more technologically awesome than homo sapiens hitting stitched leather with wood, whether its for 3 hours or 5 days ?

 

 

 

 

I have no idea where you got your formal education from but freedom of speech does not mean name calling.

and if Stephen Hawking or Einstein were to watch porn, would that make it a sophisticated endeavour?

 The fast internet you are enjoying today is a by product of porn industry. Our heritage in khajurao was also erotic art which you may call porn. Now if Stephen Hawkings watched porn as far as I am concerned no big deal.

Besides theory of relativity Einstains personal life was devoted to multiple women and multiple marriages. Get that naive image of Einstain out of your head of relativity only. 

Trust me both Einstein and Hawkings were very human.

Today I learned a very valuable lesson. Calling others noobs and simpletons is very classy. Stay classy my friends.

The IPL lovers should know better, that's the league where Unadkat makes millions 

 

Test cricket isn't as much about money, IPL certainly is so. 

and money is everything.

LOL abey tu bada expert hai business world ka  When the format dies then come here and brag till then keep dreaming about death of test cricket, aya bada buisness world  

It's ok man, not everyone understands that passion =/= money will come in. Test cricket will die, even the international players sees it aswell. You don't understand it, it's ok. Not everyone has a business mind ...

[UrmiSinhaRay]

My GAWD! How dare you use such condescending tone for kirkut. Comparing it to economics! .....who even studies economics?astrology makes more sense than economics.Even Rajan didnt study economics ,hence could become the governor of Rbi.
 
 
Also that bhari bharkam name helps out his cause ,he is lucky his parents gave him one of those important sounding names much like Mahendra singh dhoni .Imagine if dhoni was named ishan kishan ,who would ever take him seriously? Mahendra singh dhoni sounds like  a sword wielding warrior hero from the past, ishan kishan sounds like some emasculated gen z, who likes to ride bikes and chase girls.

Ishan Kishan sounds like a farmer's name honestly.
I am sorry but I laughed out loud the moment I heard that name last IPL

Test cricket is not sustainable

for example with Ireland and Afghan joining, who is gonna invite them? The best batsmen probably won’t ever face Rashid Khan or Mujeeb in a 3-4 Test match series.

Irelandcan sustain themselves and grow their domestic structure on diet of T20s and One days

 

Heck England only invited Pakistan for 2 Test match series, Aus cancelled Bangladesh tour of Aus

No one's stopping others from playing 50 day games. There's enough variety in sport for its set of followers, 100 m sprint to 42 km marathon. To each their own, not too hard to understand for most unlike you.

 

Being athletic and having a certain skillset aren't always the same thing. Again, you don't seem capable of understanding the skills required in test cricket because you don't like it or don't have the patience for it.

Talks about your own lack of education, narrow mindedness or real world exposure for starters. You could go look up how freedom of speech is defined in the constitutions of various nations and what exactly is explicitly prohibited (hint: its nothing to do with referring to thoughts/choices/ideas as simple minded or idiotic). Further, learn the difference between simple minded people and ideas, retarded people & retarded ideas. The latter will require comprehension skills which seem out of your grasp. 

 

You don't seem capable of grasping sporting skills of test cricket, whine about its history, call its legends amateurs and then throw a tantrum when called out on your nonsense.

I am a test cricket lover myself but the stark difference is seen when India tours england here. The Test matches are dominated by the English fans on most days (90-10) to indian fans, where this is completly reversed in the LOI matches when there's hardly a white face to be found in the ground.... and this is the country which wants to experiment with The 100

It is not for you to determine what I am capable of understanding. Like I mentioned I did pass highschool.

 

I agree one may prefer to watch 100 m dash or a 26.2 mile marathon. I watch the dash. The problem is why should the dash pay for the marathon. In this case why should T 20 pay for test if it is so good and so important and so great and all that.

I will never grasp the sporting skill of test players because I have watched lard asses like Bedi and Parsanna. Call them anything you want to but dont call them athletes.

 

Calling someone a noob is not acceptable. Go read you history of free speech and you will understand that there are some boundaries to it. Name calling is one of those. Before your next post take a walk.

 

When you call others names you have lost it that point.

i am sure 99.99% @Khota bhai is trolling here

but i honestly beleive this 

[Ankit_sharma03]

its all about competitive cricket

In test cricket hardly teams are at par and when they are it makes an exciting series. Recent Ind-SA test series was as fun as IPL. This IPL was so fun coz it was so closely fought. 

 

Yes many ppl dnt have time to watch test matches, but the minute when it gets close every one tunes in their tv . If a series like 2005 ashes of 2001 Ind-Aus happens again i have no doubt their wud be huge viewership
