Is Test Cricket in the Race?

With overwhelming response to the latest found addition in Cricket, Test Cricket is slowly but gradually moving in a corner. This post is written to activate a debate on Test Cricket as a competitor to T20. With all the colour and flare involved in the shorter version of the game it is quite justified to put Test Cricket into a separate  frame altogether. Cricket came into being with the coming of Test Cricket.As being the sheet anchor of the game there lies a responsibility on the shoulders of every individual who has been the part of Cricket in one way or the other.  Test cricket needs our support and who can be the best critic than you.
T20's have obviously generated  better results in context of the game, profits and excitement but this does not guarantee that this format would not fade out as the clock ticks by. So being fair  to every format of the game is the route forward.
Kolkata would be in the midst of daily business activities but very few would have noticed the test match results which are out now!!. This has to be either the Death or the Birth of the game.

Do you hear me ? I am Cricket!!!

Hello everyone on this beautiful evening as i start writing my first blog, the nerves are starting to settle down just like the opener who is taking guard. Cricket lovers all around the world i would like welcome you and would appreciate your participation and comments on all the latest blogs being posted. Cricket as a game has gone through Well Deserved Ups and Downs, when i say Well Deserved it has to be the game itself and the policy makers who have kept the game alive and kicking. With the arrival of corruption cases the floor has lit up one again but sadly this time the lights are here to stay for some time. Given the current overcast conditions the fans of the game are the only hope for Cricket to move forward. ICC needs to assure that the future of cricket is bright and they cannot afford any more hiccups as further events would act like a nail in the coffin. As the dawn breaks we are ready for the a new competition, new players taking guard and new bowlers shining the ball. Every Cricket match is the game of optimism, with major test playing nations fighting it out this winter it is surely warming up for a season to be remembered. From Australia's Shocker to Srilanka's revive i can guarantee  Cricket would be the winner all this winter. Stay tuned for more, Happy reading :)
