If Test cricket died

[slippyslip]

I'd watch it occasionally, especially 50 over stuff, but nowhere near as much.

Cricket would simply fall down in my list of sports to watch.

Already watch far more county cricket than Tests, so yes, obviously. Although the question of whether the domestic game could survive without the huge subsidies given by the ECB is another matter.

But while Tests in England, in London at least, continue to sell out 9 months in advance I doubt if there's any need to worry.

Ok, what if only England and Australia were the only test teams left.

Would you get sick of an Ashes series 2 a year?

Or if they kept the same schedule would people actually gain interest in the Ashes. Would it become something like the olympics, world cup or maybe more accurately a British and Irish Lions tour.

I'd probably watch ODI's when I could, but I wouldn't go out of my way to do so (as I do with tests).

I'd watch Odis if they were on Fta telly - but that's true of most sporting events. Wouldn't make an effort to watch it, read about it or post online about it. Would probably do the same for international T20 matches. Wouldn't watch IPL.

If test cricket was aust and England twice a year, I'd be happy enough.

I think I'd slowly lose interest. I'd be pretty disillusioned with a sport that allowed its greatest form to die out.

Football tries its best IMO
