T20 is the gateway ganja to the psychosis-inducing crack that is Test cricket. Actually that is a terrible metaphor, but you get the idea.

Sorry, I think I gave the wrong impression, I agree with you on the T20 or one day game for those wanting to get into the game. I also think that you are right about a draw and a game getting rained off. But a good test can go one way then the other and build up into a fabulous climax. I don't know how many times I have come back from work to see that England have snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.
Sorry if I didnt make myself clear before, you were right, I would have said the same thing if you hadn't said it first.
