Hard disagree from me. I love the fist pumping and celebrations, really adds a bit of hype to what can be a pretty dour sport at times.

More of anything is going to be impossible while franchise T20 leagues are filling up more and more of the calender. Agree though

Make the final a 3 innings a side match

Make the final a tug of war contest imo.......makes as much sense as an obsolete format of the game that the players have never even seen much less played.

It makes sense if it's a big wicket or moment. Not like Shaheen raising his arms every wicket he gets.

Why is it logistically impossible?
Adders
Cricketer Of The Year
Because absolutely no one involved can commit time and resources for an unspecified time frame. The players, the grounds, the boards and most importantly the TV companies and the public with bums on seats.
None of us cricket fans like to think too much about the financial side of the game but it does cost a lot of money to host test matches.......who the hell is going to invest In a contest that could last 3 days or 10?
Even the little things like food vendors......who is going to book themselves in for day 8 and knock back other opportunities for work?
It's untenable on every level before you even consider the stupidity of asking players to play a format at the highest level that they've never played and have no idea about.
