Sunday, March 1st, 2009

Test cricket is the one of the formats of playing cricket. As the name suggest, it is the real test for a player when it comes to Test matches. The maximum number of days a Test match will be played is five. Each day a maximum of 90 over’s has to be bowled. But due to climatic interruptions the match will be closed before 90 over’s also. Of the 104 members in ICC, only 10 nations have the Test playing status. On March 15th 1877, the first recognized Test match was conducted between England and Australia on Melbourne cricket Ground in Australia.
