We're getting the rub of the umpire calls. | | | |

Looks like we'll be ok. Umpire call on review just now. Sri Lanka have forgotten how to win, especially in these tight situations. | |

Great to play New Zealand - but only two tests against the top team in the world so we can play loads of meaningless ODI / T20s and then 5 more tests against India? Would really like to see us doing substantial tours to Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, New Zealand and West Indies - it feels like it's pretty much just India or Australia these days, with a couple of tests against the others jammed in as an afterthought. | | | |

All about money isn't it. New Zealand have never been a big draw. They are a decent side and a lot more attractive now but historically, they've been seen as a bit workmanlike with a class act like Hadlee, Crowe thrown in. Even before the advent of Sky, T20 etc, NZ never had more than a 3 test series here. West Indies are probably not seen competitive enough anymore. | |

Yes, this is what I thought - they almost guaranteed it now aren't they? And as for the plethora of t20s - with a world cup still scheduled this year I can see the importance of them. I expect Tests get better viewing figures for Sky than t20s if I'm honest - and certainly Tests are more profitable for the ECB and host grounds. | | | |
