South Africa haven't done much to help Test Cricket in the last week.  Naming a very weakened squad to go to a long planned series of New Zealand, because it clashes with a more recently arranged T20 Franchise tournament that they're prioritising. Then, days later - and after defending themselves against the criticism saying they still respect the longer format - producing a Test wicket that lasted just a day and half, including them being bowled out for 55 in the first innings! Gits.

At the moment India still take test cricket seriously, but I fear that changing when Kohli retires. I'm no Kohli fan, but he has been quite vocal in promoting test cricket as the ultimate version of the game, and credit to him for that. I guess having Rahul Dravid as their head coach may also help |
