Lovejoy Posted 27 July 2008 Posted 27 July 2008 Everytime I watch Twenty20 I like it even more than previously. Now to the extent that I prefer it to test cricket!!! Please discuss.
Brainy Posted 27 July 2008 Posted 27 July 2008 Test Cricket can get pretty annoying when there's several rain breaks. Gotta be Twenty20 for me
Simi Posted 27 July 2008 Posted 27 July 2008 The year we won the Ashes I was loving test cricket. Never have I been so involved in cricket, it was gripping. Don't watch that much cricket now, Twenty20 is obviously a lot easier on the eyes.

Don't watch that much cricket now, Twenty20 is obviously a lot easier on the eyes. It was the Ashes that actually got me involved in cricket, I didn't know a lot about until then. What a time to start watching it as well, a first Ashes win for a long time. I don't find Test Cricket boring, I just find the shorter formats more entertaining. I'd probably say Twenty20 is my faviourite.
SamL Posted 27 July 2008 Posted 27 July 2008 Test Cricket can get pretty annoying when there's several rain breaks.Gotta be Twenty20 for me Very true. At least in the shorter formats of the game, a result can sometimes be forced.
Guest Posted 27 July 2008 Posted 27 July 2008 Nothing beats a day watching test match cricket. Even if you forget how to get home afterwards.....
Jay Posted 27 July 2008 Posted 27 July 2008 I really really love watching test match cricket when England are taking wickets or batting in full flight for some reason I am not so keen when England are doing really poor, the opposition is hitting them all over the park and they are losing wickets big time, unless of course it was Shane Warne bowling I would pay money just to watch him bowl total genius shame he has retired from Test Cricket now.
Fox You Forest Posted 27 July 2008 Posted 27 July 2008 Test Cricket followed by twenty/20. I find 50 over cricket extremely boring. It took me ages to write this so many spelling mistakes .
Corky Posted 27 July 2008 Posted 27 July 2008 Test cricket is the best. Can't beat it. I like Twenty20 as well though. 50 0vers isn't too bad, only really like it for World Cups. There is too much of it at the moment, with pointless series.
Father Ted Posted 27 July 2008 Posted 27 July 2008 Only really twenty20 I will watch. Watching Test cricket is like asking to become stressed!
Sparky Posted 27 July 2008 Posted 27 July 2008 I went to watch day 4 of the 05 Ashes at Trent bridge . The game swung 1 way then the other till Ashley Giles knocked the winning runs at around 10 past 6 , we had an absolute blinder of a day and 1 of the main reasons ive edged for test cricket . In all fairness as a big cricket fan i watch all forms and enjoy them all and i belive we need to keep all forms of the game alive

There is alot more skill ivolved in test but 20-20 alot more fun to watch i would say
Milky Posted 27 July 2008 Posted 27 July 2008 Test....but only if it's England playing. I can watch the shorter forms when my team isn't involved.
Uncle Albert Posted 27 July 2008 Posted 27 July 2008 It was the Ashes that actually got me involved in cricket, I didn't know a lot about until then. Glory grabber. Test for me. Then ODI. Test is good and is a brilliant day out, Day 1 Edgebaston 2nd Test 2005. What a day. England smashing 400 up on the first day. Freddy's innings was class. ODI is good i think, especially watching teams like the Aussie's who always go and play aggresive. For example the Australia v South Africa match both hitting over 400 and South Africa needing 436 to win. Class. Not as keen on Twenty20 as I used to be, loved it when it first came out with Leicestershire winning it but now there is to much over hype in it and this years Twenty20 finals day was the worst there has been.
Samilktray Posted 27 July 2008 Posted 27 July 2008 I find it quite possibly the most boring sport ever. I even prefer Golf.
billyfox1 Posted 28 July 2008 Posted 28 July 2008 I find it quite possibly the most boring sport ever.I even prefer Golf. then why did you bother reading the thread?
