It was so feral last year.


Compared too?
A Proper Test match. 2pm start allows the socialites to get buzzed before heading to the cricket. The amount of blokes and chicks staggering around the members at stumps has been mind boggling!


And the issue is? :drinkers:

I liked the pink ball tests but would prefer we didn't have them every time. Good to have a red ball day test. Half/half split over the years would be ideal.

I prefer the first morning of a Test Match rather than the first session being mid afternoon.

Doesn't bother me really, but i'm more inclined to watch the whole days play in a regular day test than a day/night test.

I still like the D/N concept though.

I dont care. im blind drunk by the post tea session either way. Just your abilioty to back up day after day is affected by it being a day game. So much easier to get out of bed for subsequent days in the arvo

Yeah, agree. Don't have any issues with the pink ball, but prefer the day-time tests, even if it was every third year.

Watch now, after three yers of cool days and evenings, this day test will be 35+, just great for all that concrete and open plastic seating.
