Test Cricket is NOT boring

If your mate ever asks you how you can sit through five days of cricket and it turns out to be a draw, show them the video of the 2nd test between South Africa and Australia in Durban on the go right now.

Words before and during the game have added sparks. One of the 'wordists' is Andre Nel. He is now facing the new ball against one of the fastest bowlers in the world in bad light and has to hold onto his wicket. Every single ball being bowled is a test on its own. Six players are close in for the catch. Shane Warne is wizzing it in from the other end to add to thier misery and still they stand.

Test cricket can be coring sometimes, but this is not one of them.
