Nikhil_cric Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I'd go 1. ODIs - not the crap we have now. I mean the good old ODIs where we had only 1 ball for 50 overs and the boundaries were right back. Depending on the conditions/wicket what a good score was actually varied so much. ODIs played in the 96-03 period were superb . 2. Tests - currently my favourite format. Test matches in all countries have their own charm and I try to watch matches involving both teams from amongst IND/SA/OZ/ENG/NZ/PAK. 3. International T20's - Only interested in world T20. 4. IPL/BBL- just keep updated on upcoming players. 5. . Other leagues - couldnt care less . Forever Indian and Clarke 2 Link to comment

Lannister Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 (edited) I cannot wait for the Test championship. But BCCI need to take care of the schedule, not the usual crap of 2 years of continuous home season and 2 years of overseas tours. They are killing off their own brand with this pathetic schedule. And don't play long series against minnows. Two test matches are more than enough. Edited August 22, 2018 by Lannister Link to comment

PBN Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 1 hour ago, Gollum said: Can any ODI or IPL win give this much joy? World Cup atmosphere easily trumps Tests. India still talks about the iconic 1983 WC win. And in the end, it's about competitive and interesting cricket. This series is exciting due to conditions. You can easily have snoozefests in Tests where it is either one-sided contests that the fans can't take the defeats or a 600+ run feasts resulting in draws. Link to comment

For example in footbal. During penalty shootouts, If striker scores, Its expected. If he doesnt, Goalkeeper is winner. Nowadays, playing against Pakistan is like England playing against Scotland. If Scotland wins it, It becomes a big news. If England wins. Its BAU. Same happened in CT17. Edited August 22, 2018 by mishra Link to comment

Pakistan has improved a lot in last 1-2 years .Your analogy of India vs Pakistan as England vs Scotland is just not true. Link to comment
