India -v- Sri Lanka

[Seatherny]

India won by an inns and 24 runs and are number 1 in ICC Test Rankings for the first time.

[Andeeh]

when the tours being played in Sri Lanka am i right in saying that there is going to be no Tests? seems absouloutely ridiculous if i have understood it right

[Seatherny]

India isnt touring Sri Lanka in the near future (not on the fixtures anyway). India was meant to have a Test Series against South Africa in a few months time but thats been cancelled for whatever reason. That is a big shame for India as that means their chances of cemeting their position as number 1 is gone, and they wont be number 1 for long. India currently wont be playing a Test match for 10 months. BCCI need to start respecting test matches. But the problem is, in India, people don't like test matches that much (either India win or loose). They prefer ODI's and T20's.

Ah i get'cha. It seems ridiculous to not have the two best test sides battle it out

I wish BCCI would make India play more tests. Oh well. India -v- Sri Lanka T20 tomorrow at midday.

I know "/ terrible fielding.

I still dont have tests as my favourite Wovles. Before last month, I didnt have sky sports so only ever saw tests on cricinfo. And I still wouldnt sit and watch test matches as its boring watching.

ah India having a cracking go at it especially sehwag gonna be close i think

[Seatherny]

Looks like India has lost
Started off well but lost too many wickets.
