17 hours of test cricket

If my calculation is right, we could have a few days of 17 hours of straight test cricket* across NZ v Eng, Australia v India and South Africa v SL. The time zones aren't great for England with a lot running overnight, but is anyone planning on a few test marathons?

*With some overlap and inclusive of schedules breaks.

Yeah but it'll only be 15 hours worth of overs! :laugh:

Maybe a gap between the end of this test and the start of the Adelaide one at this rate

Something like this was scheduled a few years ago and two of the games got ruined by rain iirc. There's bad weather forecast for Adelaide too lol.

Had I been working today and not about to embark on a 5 hour drive to the North, I reckon I could've clocked up about 10 or so hours of it on in the background.

I managed 90 minutes last night but regretted it when my kids woke me up before 6. Did at least manage an hour of India's hapless innings before work though.
