Sidhoni Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 It is a great idea for test cricket, and IMO it is held only once so far in 1998/99.(Apparently Ashish Nehra made his debut in that series.)Was held in 02 too, but there was no Indian team participating in it.:dontknow:Why didn't they continue it?Now there are talks about ICC starting the World Test championship between top 4 teams of the world.Really waiting for it, atleast one of these 2 should start now.http://search.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/site/search.html?search=Asian+Test+Championship&gblsearch= Sri Lanka after winning the 02 trophy.
Pagalpanti Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 For Test series to go forward, they have to start introducing Day-night tests. Also they should arrange Tri-series of sorts say between Australia-India-Pakistan, South Africa-England-India. It would be a sell out. I think bi-lateral test series aren't interesting anymore unless of course its The Ashes or iconic series like India v Eng/SA.

yoda Posted June 22, 2011 Posted June 22, 2011 yes tests against SL, Bang and Pak - how exciting. :hahaha: Let's go for Aus, Eng, SA, Ind test championship on nothing but bouncy/turning tracks and I will vote.

Test Championship is being planned and is due to take place in England among the top 4 teams.
Zero_Unit Posted June 22, 2011 Posted June 22, 2011 Asian test series? You must be kidding me right? Pakistan - Srilanka is suffering from bans/retirements/injuries of players and Bangladesh can barely take a match to day 5 let alone win. Asian test championship = bad idea. I'm all for Asia cup but not Test Asia cup.

mishra Posted June 23, 2011 Posted June 23, 2011 Not bad.... But i think Ijaj butt will protest the idea, then protest the participation. then ask for participation in media. Then refuse in icc meeting,After the games deny everything and ask his pm to claiim compensation from India
