I just don't want any tampering with the basics of test cricket. Let the home team chose what pitch they want to face an opponent.

2 Tire is not the answer, 4 day test isn't the answer, Day/Ni could be a partial answer to get the people coming in the evening, wider use of technology could be a partial answer, Best answer is to produce quality players, spectators will automatically come, and T20/ODi is contributing to that largely. You shouldn;t try to make test cricket look like T20. (All IMO) Relax man, it's not a murder, it's just let the Test cricket live like it was, without makeovers.
Spot on.
