    Well that was a one type of Comdey show. England team enjoying in Standford matches even no fear about upcoming Indian series where their records is not up to the mark.

    Yes you are right. He requested rest from Selectors and we will miss him for first 3 ODIs.

    Arent 7 ODIs a little too much? And that too at the expense of a test match. I would have definitely preferred 5 ODIs and three tests instead.

    Yes you are right but instead of 7 ODI's there should be 5 ODIs and three 20-20 games should be played?What you say guys?

    I think it might be good for players as they have 2 extra matches instead for 5 day test.

    How about 2-3 T20 instead for 2 ODI.:D

    I agree in terms of the number of days, a test match is 5 days versus the 2 days for 2 ODIs. However, the kind of travelling, setting up, preparing, and pressures associated with the ODIs, it is a little more strenous than tests...

    anyways, looking at the crowds...or the lack of them anyways...it doesnt look like too many prefer tests to ODIs/T20s.

    Personally, a two test match series makes no sense to me, especially against an opponent like England, who had held India to a 1-1 draw in their tour to India.

    Yes in India traveling is a big issue as one match here and second day next match will more than 700 Km away and sometimes 2000 KM away it.: BCCI always ignore this things when they make a tour.

    Test match is the Real test For Cricketer.

    It was a shot of confidence, of arrogance, and a shot that shook Caddick and the English team off their feet in that match.

    Same goes with the couple of shots that he hit off Glen McGrath in the Mini World Cup at Nairobi...but the difference was that after that, McGrath went to have a word with Tendulkar and the usually quiet Tendulkar asked him to "buzz off"
