South Africa Series shortened

Postby Jim05 » Fri May 06, 2011 8:37 am

Bit disappointed to find that the 3 test series between the saffers and Aussies has been shortened to 2 tests and 2 T20's. These two countries normally have great battles and a 2 test series is a farce

South Africa have the sh1ts on with Australia as they want us to tour there for a boxing day test.

We will never have a full test series against this mob until this happens.

On the upside due to the short series we will see attacking test match cricket as both sides wanting to win.

When they can draw a decent crowd to a test they can consider a boxing day test. Their crowds are woeful, ive seen bigger crowds at a redbacks shield match than what these muppets can get to a test
