MELBOURNE: Cricket Australia chief executive officer Todd Greenberg voiced his concerns over extending the duration of a Test match from five days to two, which can lead to continued excitement due to the number of wickets taken; however, Greenberg said that wicket-laden days can lead to the long-term demise of Tests as a format.
In light of the two-day test match that kicked off the Ashes series in Perth, there is now also a realistic possibility that we may see a third quick Test match during the Boxing Day Test match at the MCG, especially considering that 20 wickets fell in an action-packed first day at this year’s Test match.
However, a record 94, 000 people crammed into the MCG on an extremely entertaining day, which will remain in the memories of all who attended for many years to come, according to Greenberg.
