Quite right LK, I do like T20 as a spectacle for a couple of hours but it can't compare, test cricket has so much more ability, drama and heart

[Legend killer]

Couldn't agree more

Sadly I can see it gone pretty much within the next 15 years with the IPL , Big Bash etc taking over

[MTVN]

Too many countries giving up on it cos they don't make as much money, like West Indies cancelled all their tests this year to play a pointless one day series against India and Sri Lanka, and too many players just going for the big bucks playing for about 5 different T20 teams a year and nothing else..

Pakistan offered Sri Lanka to play a day/night test match with a pink ball a few weeks ago but I dunno if that could take off

Ireland putting England to the sword once again how long can the icc prevent Ireland from having test status

[Legend killer]

Like taking candy from a baby the likes of England are no match for the Irish

[Legend killer]

FML England's 2 best players are Irish lool could not make this up

ENGLAND WIN BY SIX WICKETS
That's how you win a match. Eoin Morgan captains England to ODI success against Ireland on his home ground, ending the match with a mighty six. He's happy and Ravi's happy. More importantly, England are happy.

[Legend killer]

2 best player WERE IRISH looooool how embarrassing

[Legend killer]

Now we know why the ICC won't give Ireland test status cause England would be useless with Irish talent

[MTVN]

That was a weak England team with a terrible bowling attack and we still won comfortably, must make you even more mad that Morgan himself doesnt think Ireland is ready for test cricket and says more young Irish players should follow his lead

[Legend killer]

Must make you mad the captain of your team is Irish and 95% of your best players are not english ZINGER

[MTVN]

He was stand in captain in a rubbish team lol, and you slate England for having a couple of foreigners, look at Irelands team:

Johnston - Aussie
Murtagh - English
Sorensen - South African

And pretty much all Irelands players only make half decent cricketers cos they come through the English system anyway lol

[Legend killer]

Say what you want about this Aussie team but they are extremely exciting to watch play every game as if it's a 20/20

[MTVN]

First day of Englands warm up match against Aus A on sky now, cant believe its only two weeks till the Ashes starts again lol

[King Gizzard]

whats the reason why it's so early this time again, something to do with the world cup?

[MTVN]

Yeah the cricket world cup will be in Aus early 2015 when they would normally do it

[MTVN]

Mind you the Ashes finishes early Jan and the WC doesnt start till Feb so they could have done it if they wanted to, think they wanted to stop the winter ashes series always being so close to the WC whenever it was played though

Aussie going to hammer England in Aus

Going into this years Ashes this Aussie team was quite literally the worst in 100 years yet if we are being honest here could easily have won 3 games weather permitting should have won 2

Trott Root and Cook have already been found out and won't get it any easier on the bouncier Aus surface which will also negate Swann's spin. Would LOVE TO see Mitchell get picked was bowling 96mph in India

Will win by at least 3 games

[MTVN]

England end the first day on 318-0, thoughts LK?

[Novo]

you won't be hearing from Legend Killer until the Aussies do something right

Maxwell bowled 24 overs

Thoughts

[Legend killer]

Cant wait to see Mitchell bowling 95mph+ beamers at Alistair flat track bullys head

I see Bell is giving it the big i am now aswell maybe his daddy Shane should be drafted in to make him cry again

I just hope for the state of cricket Cook Root and Trott don't try to bore the Aussies into submission again

[King Gizzard]

Going to try watch more of this this time around, think it's more fun watching it in their back yard, and of course it being during the night

[Legend killer]

4-0 Aus

Clarke is going to hurt this England bowling attack and Mitch is going to hurt the whole England team with 96mph beamers.
