And to think that if we had those maddening 2 test series the untold joys that I hope lie before us would have been banished. I like the spontaneity and exuberance of T20 but this vast canvas of strengths and frailties, this exhibition of character has me hooked.

I look forward to seeing the great skills these teams possess in Kolkata and Nagpur but even more, I look forward to seeing how they approach the many different situations that test cricket thrusts them into. And I will hope to be reassured that it is 11 men that produce results not 22 yards of turf.
