A 4 day game would have made no difference. Four 4 day games in 3 weeks before the first test would have.

Boycott would have been out there since boxing day offering a pound and a cocunut to any young fast bowler who could knock his stumps over on an unrolled, uncovered pitch.

Groundhog Day.

f***ing two day warm up games :lol:

England actually turned down a 4 day first class game, West indies were pissed off as they pulled out good players from the regional games

Has it been said why the ECB turned down a 4 day game?
They haven't said a reason AFAIK, but I have seen that the Windies were furious we said no, because they pulled some of their best first-class cricketers out of games to play in it
