Test cricket (international matches played over five days) is a truly wonderful experience that I urge everyone to try and watch* at least once.<p>When you try and explain that the most engaging of matches can end in a draw, after all that time, you rarely succeed on winning over sceptics, but find a friend that is willing to sit and watch for a few days and try it out.<p>*or listen to, it&#x27;s equally at home on the radio, where you can keep up in a state of semi-aware engagement. Test cricket doesn&#x27;t require complete concentration, just a willingness to know what is going on.
