And the fact it is a day nighter
I actually loved that. being able to catch most of the test after work on Friday. And if it lasted longer Id be able to catch most of Day 4 this evening.
I thought the Day\night element was cool, the crowds were fantastic, the pitch was exciting, the ball was different. I just thought it was all great.
Yeah i'm a fan. Hopefully not to be overused, but it's a nice concept.
One thing i loved was the ball hooping round at night. Anything that gives the bowlers a leg up gets a big plus from me.
Totally agree...so much has been made of lately of bats that are too big making the game lopsided. It was a much more even contest, will bring back more form to the art of batting and those who decry the smaller scores/done in 3 days are missing one little thing...it's the first test in over 130 years with a dramatically different ball, it will take time to adjust.
