:::There was a time when the 50-over format got on my goat. These days I tend to have seen the error of my ways. A year or three ago ago Ponting and Clarke came together at 3 for not very much and "built an innings". They grafted and struggled and ran the quick singles and found themselves out of the woods. I found appreciation of the format. (Still a Test bloke though.) [[User:AlanE|AlanE]] 22:06, 17 February 2013 (EST)

::::I tend to be in the distinct minority these days in that I believe the ODI is the best format.  I definitely like my tests, particularly the fact that they ebb and flow over a period of 5 days (3 for New Zealand) but its too hard to watch much of them.  T20's I find incredibly dull and silly.  You simply can't compare a bit of slash dash with all the drama and intrigue of a gripping second innings like yesterdays.  ODI is definitely our best format, although I note we are still ranked 8th in them.  --[[User:DamianJohn|DamianJohn]] 22:14, 17 February 2013 (EST)
