Perhaps they should have stopped playing cricket away from home altogether a few years ago because they never won anything. Perhaps we should scrap the Ashes because we've been thrashed by Aus so many times. Perhaps Bangladesh should refuse the next test series against whoever because they are walloped by just about everybody except the current WI and Zim. I don't like this suggestion of chickening out because they have been beaten by Aus so many times in ODIs. I prefer to see it as good sense prevailing and tests being given their due respect and importance for once.
A test series will always be more exciting, especially against Australia so I am glad that they are not sacrificing tests for ODIs in this case, but that seems to be BCCIs plan for SA and that is pretty pathetic.
