Mark Taylor has urged the game to embrace a change to the Test format to protect the future of the longest form. 9WWOS Cricket
Nathan Lyon appeals unsuccessfully for the wicket of KS Bharat during day one of the third Test match.
"Loose a bit of time, get a really flat pitch - well declare earlier. We don't need to see 500 runs scored every innings. The best games of cricket have always been where a side makes about 350 and the second side does the same and then you've got a really good contest.Quizzed if a change in duration would mark the beginning of the end of Test cricket, Taylor acknowledged that the demise of the longer format was already in motion.
The Indore pitch was rated as 'poor' by the ICC in its official assessment following Australia's win. "You want the groundsmen to just prepare the best pitch they think is going to give the right balance between bat and ball and let the players do the playing after that," he said.
