World Test Championships off till 2017 at least

[WC2011INDIA]

Nah this shouldn't be happening. It will be too boring to watch...

What happens during a draw' date=' tie?, what happens during washouts?, There was talk of an endless Test final?, really?, what is the qualification period?[/quote'] I remember Lorgat suggesting time-less tests for this tournament and yeah format sucks, only top 4 teams to decide the champion? Ridiculous.

I remember once Bob Willis said only top 4 teams should be allowed to play in the Champions Trophy, the presenter then told him that if that was the case then England would not qualify! Willis said "well then they are not box office are they?" :hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical:

Bob Willis is great to listen to when England play poorly.

[Utalk]

Bob Willis is great to listen to when England play poorly.

Haha, true. Love listening to bob when England have a bad day.

Even the English fans are amazingly self deprecating when they are losing. Much more so than fans in the subcontinent who rush to defend their team However, in victory everyone is equally arrogant

[carnish]

WTC format was stupid... nice its deferred I guess if we have a WTC then we should atleast have it contested by top 8 or for that matter by all 10 test playing nations even if we have to go for a knockout tournament... that would mean if by any chance zimbabwe beats australia then zimbabwe should go through even though they are a far inferior side. A test championship should give most teams a chance against each other as the present ICC rankings are nothing but a joke really.

lol every time england lost in ODI series i switched to sky sports to see botham and bumbles face and listed to bob willis. especial y after English summer this was so satisfying. regarding test championship, they should scrap it. just give me number one ranked team battling it out with number two for 3-4 tests.

[ViruRulez]

I have been hearing the test championship for ages and it is now getting boring. ICC does not seem to be interested in organizing it though it would have revealed the most talented teams.
