The greatest test
Gideon Haigh at Cricinfo writes on what constitutes a great test. Great article again from a man who I believe will be one of the finest cricket writers in time to come. An extract of the article:
Cricket can be cruel. The beaten edge, the unplayable ball, the impossible chance that is taken, the straightforward chance that is fluffed, the umpire’s inadvertent error: on individuals, cricket inflicts the most exquisite suffering. But, for all the blah about glorious uncertainty, Test cricket is utterly, massively, viciously fair.
