Who Says Test Cricket is Dead ?

Three four years ago when twenty20 cricket started we all thought twenty20 cricket would put the final nail of the coffin of the test cricket.

Most games are, some cricket between advertisements. The common cricket lovers feel that this is for businessmen and few twenty20 specialists not for the masses.

The last test match between India and Australia was the silver line in the dark cloud. It proved that test cricket can still produce excitement while delivering quality cricket. And today is the forth day of the second test match between the same team and it looks like heading to the same kind of exciting finish. But one notable thing here is the way the pitch reacts.
