Test game must embrace day-night format or die, Lalit Modi
Test cricket should switch to a day-night format or face extinction, according to Lalit Modi, the chairman of the Indian Premier League. In an interview in today's Guardian, Modi says the Test game could disappear if it does not accept such a radical change. "Yes, it could happen because the broadcaster won't be interested," he said. "Whether we like it or not, broadcasting determines whether a game survives. Without broadcasters you don't have money to pay players or keep the sport alive."
