AB de Villiers on decline in Test cricket
Former South African cricketer AB de Villiers has expressed his discontentment over the depletion of the series in the longest format of the game. de Villiers has pointed out the surge in the T20 games being played around the World which is contributing to the decline in Test. Less than a week ago, India were in South Africa for the two-match Test series, that resulted in draw with both South Africa and India winning the first and second game respectively.
Generally, With the less number of Test series, the outcome doesn’t amount to the expectations that are built around ahead of the series. During India's tour of South Africa, it was a two-match series between both teams. They played with the raging cricketing spirit to dominate each other in both games to level the series, but the competitive and fierce outcome remained far away. Hitting out, de Villiers called for change to have suffiecent amount of Test cricket.
“I am not happy that there is not a third Test. You have to blame the T20 cricket going around the world for that. I do not know whom to blame, but I sense something is wrong. If you want to see all the teams compete and see who is the best team in the world, something has to change,” de Villiers said on his YouTube channel.
