First Two Days Of England-West Indies Game At Lord’s Summed Up Where Test Cricket Is, Says Hussain
Moreover, the majority of the members in the West Indies squad haven’t played red-ball cricket since the wonderful eight-run win over Australia at Brisbane in January. "Those two days summed up for me where we are with Test cricket. You talk about all the batting they could have but they're off in a white-ball sunset, you've got bowlers who haven't bowled, you've got undercooked cricketers, and then you lose the toss and have the worst of conditions, and everyone goes 'Test cricket is dying'."
"But if you prepare for a Test match like that, you'll get exactly what England get when they go away. It frustrates me because you've got to give Test matches the preparation that they deserve, which is a very easy thing to say but a very difficult thing to do in modern times," said Hussain on the Sky Sports Cricket Podcast.
