Semi Serious Ideas to Re-Invigorate Test Cricket

[Yeoman]

Substituted player has to miss the next match or two?

 

[TheJediBrah]

You could sub your whole bowling attack if they're tired after the first innings. Wouldn't be too hard to justify an "injury" of some kind.

Regardless of how strict you make the rules you will always be able to do stuff like this to some extent at least

Jadeja's hamstring getting concussed for example.

1.Overseas Team should decide whether they would bat or bowl first
2. Teams should be allowed to change their players after the Toss .
3. No over rate penalty if Test match has result
4. In case of injury to players in a match , teams should be allowed a similar substitute.

jokes aside i really don't like this because i think it encourages roads

still more realistic than Starfighter's suggestions

They still haven't answered the millenia-old question: where is Taibu's head?

Can I bowl from the far end? Some much needed gratification for a 4th stump line

was this a meme i missed?

You can bowl to the third and fourth players with bats as they're on your team. They then hit the ball at the batter. Bonus runs for hitting the ball into earth and causing a minor extinction.

This would be abused the **** out of

India already got away with playing Saha + Pant to keep and bat respectively with the concussion law imagine what they'd get away with if you could sub any player at any time if you can convince someone that they're injured

Good to see u r still butt hurt and are making up stuff here

 

[TheJediBrah]

Not sure what I'm making up, that's literally what happened but ok

There was no concussion sub. It was regular injury substitution on the field and Pant was genuinely injured as various players and news articles have highlighted. So basically none of what you posted, happened, except your butthurt

Oh you're right it wasn't concussion sub, which makes it even more relevant actually. I was confusing it with Jadeja's concussed hamstring. Saha came in and kept and then Pant came in and batted despite his injury lol. If India are doing stuff like this already imagine how they'll abuse a legitimate injury sub rule

Yeah when has a batsman ever batted with an injury in test cricket.


Is congenital lying your way to cope any sort of envy?

 

[Prince EWS]

Respect the Saha.

 

[Son Of Coco]

If the home team doctors their wickets, the away team gets to bowl from 10 yards instead of 20.

Neither do you. You can simply stop lying.
