Why even bother with a 3 day FC match???

I've been questioning why international teams play 3 days matches since I can remember. The should be playing 4 day games as that would improve the chance of a result. I know it's only a tour match but come on, at least try and achieve a result. Results in 3 day tour matches seem so rare, it's just draw after draw. Sides are just continually playing dead cricket, it just seems pointless.

1st test and india batting, gambir and sehwag smahing ém 0/63 after 12

make that 0/100

This is like collingwood vs port Adelaide I hope neither win

i dislike both immensely but england more so, i am rootn for the sooks

India 4/323 end of first day

Sehwag 117

Swan has all 4 Of England's wickets

the sooks continue on their merry way at 4/371

No wonder test cricket seems to be dying on the sub continent.

People aren't interested in five day batathons.

They can go to a t20 and see that in three hours.

India still 4/4 zillion at lunch on day 2

From what i saw of the pitch on day one it will be very hard to bat on when day 4 and 5 comes around.

Swann was turning them a long way.

Currently 6 / 449

Agree but by day 4 I think the only result possible will be a draw unless there is a colossal collapse
