A five-day competition where neither side can win often appear Test cricket contact with the rest of the 21st century begins the series of life between England and India today in his second game of the 2000 marks the will of God.
And with a sold-out home "Cricket", which seems very Sachin Tendulkar of India for the first player than a hundred international hundreds, there is life in the old dog yet hope to become Score.
Certainly, no one designing a sports format would come today with something like the cricket test.
But its extent, and the unique ability associated with the change in luck - this month marks the 30th anniversary of the remarkable victory of England, after, against Australia at Headingley - he can say the most memorable moments as a day Twenty20 formats and create.
Beginning with a match between Australia and England at Melbourne in 1877, it took some time to test cricket apart as more important than their own first class corresponds to old rivals South Africa and see, its global appeal in these early years was strictly limited.
There were also tests for a large part of their history, relatively rare events with 803 hits in the first hundred years of play compared to 1197 in 34 years.
He rarely an age since its inception as a cricket test has not been covered many crises threatened his life last year with scandal of place with players from Pakistan in England was the latest example.
Could it be diplomatic and sports, has ramifications, including the Bodyline series of 1929-1930, when England Harold Larwood and Bill Voce Quicks rolled legside a field packed in an offer to the phenomenal performance of the score Australian great Don Bradman stop.
But until then, had the important decision was to broaden the horizon of test cricket, even with two Imperial Cricket Conference in 1926 Lord agreed to exchange visits to England with the West Indies, New Zealand and India, cricket is open to African-Caribbean and Asian influences were.
A series of increasingly sterile Anglo-Australian contest left in the 1950s and 1960s, a lot of fear to a future Testkricket dynamic side of the West Indies during the Tour's "Tied Test" from 1960 to 1961 showed there is another way to play the game.
Even so, one day cricket migrated to the international level, and soon proved a commercial success.
Recently, the introduction of the Twenty20 impertinent, return migration from the county on the world stage, has opened a new public.
And the creation of the League Twenty20 Indian Prime Minister, a vast wealth of new players were available, without having first established their status in the arena test.
But as the International Cricket Council (ICC) Chief Executive Haroon Lorgat said Thursday: "Test cricket is the pinnacle of the form of play
"It is our connection to the origins of the game, it is what defines the size and it is the players as the yardstick by which they want sorted recognized and commemorated.
"History has proven that no other form of gambling to create memorable and meaningful moments that can Test cricket."
This does not mean she does not face major challenges. Crowds outside England and Australia, are often poor and can leave the devices themselves overwhelmed by the sheer frequency of the most fervent fan feeling.
Day / night test, often as a way to regain public announcement to remain on the drawing board and if the championship of the ICC proposed test, but to be a way provided more context for the individual series in the bill that encourages the public's imagination, remains to be seen.
But unless a critical mass within the sport believe Test cricket live up to its reputation as the ultimate challenge - and can convince enough people to cross the border, to provide financial support - is it coming to a time.
