Looked at the fixture for home tests next summer and we are playing three tests vs Pakistan and two vs the Windies, are fans really going to be bothered to come and watch two more non competitive teams get flogged every test. I would have thought New Zealand would have featured in at least one series after such a nondescript summer of rubbish test cricket, at least the Kiwis are competitive and interested in the longer format unlike most of the other teams who now pay token respect to Test cricket and want the money from the shorter formats.
Elgar wanted to say more at his presser but couldnt but clearly isnt happy with the state of the game in South Africa and how they are looking at Test Cricket in the future.
