a test match?

 

[Leggie]

a test match?

I think he means just ODI's

a test match?

You only play 7 hours at a time* in a Test match, if you're counting the breaks as playing time.

*Only in instances where Ricky Ponting isn't captaining the bowling team.

well the day/nighters are good for us, it doesnt finish until 12pm but day games finish about 8am

 

[Animator!]

Well, the games are obviously sheduled for the benefit of the Australian. The proposal to move some of the game from some of the Indian fans on here is ridiculous. It'd be like playing the next Ashes from 11PM - 7AM so the Aussie fans could watch it during the day on satellite.

The notion that you took us seriously is the only thing that is ridiculous.

 

[Animator!]

The sad fact that some of you genuinely called for day/night games is ridiculous.

Even if English isn't your first language, grammar this poor is inexcusable.

What are you talking about? You're just making a mountain out of a molehill. It seems that you are just finding another reason to attack Indian fans when it is quite clear that any comment about time issues was not that serious in nature. Or you'd have seen the donkeys and effigies already.

what time is the match today.

He said 'a game'. One complete test match is a whole game, one day of it isn't.

Indeed, but the post was made in reference to someone making a typo about watching the game for 20 hours instead of 8. It's quite obvious if you looked at the context that he meant in one sitting. Otherwise golf is also up for grabs since it can go for up to 4 days.

Scion tends to mean everything he says, as stupid as it is of times.

I disagree. Your response made it seem as if Scion was going to lead a nationwide boycott of cricket if Australia didn't resort to only day-nighters.
