What is more important ?? Winning ODI series or Test series??

Question

I think ODI is not based on true talent but bit of luck as well. But in test cricket the talent really matters.

They say that 20/20 is cheap cricket. But entertaining. So what do you think guyz??

The test matches are more important or the ODI's???

Teams should practice for more ODI's or playing in test matches?

Answer 1

Test series is more imp.

Answer 2

don't ever lose heart, you have still two matches to go, accepting defeat before the end of series is not a good projection to the opponents !

test series was won by Doctrove's dubious TV LBWs against Fab4, it was not won by SL

hope it helps!

god bless!

Answer 3

Each form has a place.  I wouldn't trade Test Cricket for anything. I think it is the best judge of skill and all of the greats must be good in the tests.  ODI's are generally more entertaining, and is still a good test of skill.  20/20 is so entertaining, will usher cricket into the new age of sports, but it's basically swinging after the ball.  In my opinion, nothing beats a good Test with an exciting end.

Answer 4

I think Test Matches are better than ODIs in test cricket you can know the Ability and Skills of the players So it is important to win Test  Series

Answer 5

Means we have won the ODI Series. Thanks.

This Century is the time for ODIs and T20s. Anything fast. They are more important to the younger generation and we all enjoy them. World Cups are not played for Tests.

WC is held for T20 and ODI. They are a priority.

Tests are becoming a past tense. Also, in the second Test, SL made a score of 136. It had skill involved in beating them, and not luck, as you say. I agree with you.  At least the ODI score of SL yesterday, was better than that. So to answer your Q, they should concentrate on winning ODIs.

At the same time build a Test team too.

Since they play more ODI they should practice more too.

  

Answer 6

dude honestly ur such a loser.....just because india beat your team in two matches in a row it doesnt mean u have to lose faith in your team.. that just shows alot of weakness....

dont think ppl dont know what your actually trying to say in this question you are just making yourself look stupid....

Answer 7

beating srilanka in srilanka

and Australia in Australia

in any form of game

on papers these teams beaten India in test series ,but we all know who r the true winners

so chill out

Answer 8

For me, it's a Test series win.

Test cricket is the "king" form of cricket. Unlike in an ODI, if your team has a howler in the innings, a Test a team can come back from the brink and go on to win (like England did at Old Trafford against New Zealand). Test cricket is physically and mentally challenging, you have to withstand 5 days straight cricket without rest. It's tough, and for me, it means more than an ODI series win.

Answer 9

I think winning a test series is more prestigious than an ODI.It involves more time, concentration & patience than ODIs.

Answer 10

test

Answer 11

Winning a Test series.

Test cricket is more of a challenge as it involves a lot more skill, not to mention (as Hannah has already pointed out) that it requires a greater mental and physical toughness to perform at a good, consistent level over 5 days.
