Test cricket easily, it's a greater test of your skill. If you have a weakness, it'll be found out.

probably one dayers bcos theres more runs scored and more things happen faster.

of course there is a skill to tests but one dayers are more exciting i think.

Tests all the way for me!

Sure the one dayers can be a little more exciting but the real skill is shown in the test matches!

Tests, ODIs, 4 dayers, ING Cup, bush, back yard at Mum's, beach? If it's cricket, I love it!!

Test cricket has it all. Strategy, drama, tension, skill, thoughful attack, all out attack, defence, real backs-to-the-wall defence, amazing fightbacks, heroic deeds, fantastic catches, courage and humour. It also has a mountain of fascinating stats. Lol.

I think the regular 'sell outs' for One-dayers show what a winner this form of the game has turned out to be. I thoroughly enjoy most of the ones I get to see. The income from this form of the game has subsidised and enabled Test cricket to survive the modern trends in sport towards more glitzy, quicker, made for TV type games.

I prefer tests, especially the way the Aussies have played for the past few years, scoring runs a lot faster than any team used to, making them similar to one-dayers but a lot more intriguing cos of the fact the players have to be mentally switched on for such a long period.

I have to say Test Cricket is the best. However 1 day cricket has contributed to Test Cricket coming up with exciting finishes. Most times now a result is the turn out in test cricket. This is because batsmen are taking more risks as they do in the 1 day format. They score faster and results happen because of this fact.
