I think u didn't realise that when they'd play 2-day games each team can only bat once. Unless one team is really crap. So we're playing a 4-day game over essentially 2-day period. It's not a bad idea. we need players used to building highscores. And this way we make sure that one century from onbe player does not automatically mean the team has a big score. Everyone will be forced to learn here. Batsmen get more used to leaving the ball and bowlers would concentrate more on consistency than on 1-2 over match-changing spells.
Correct me if I'm wrong here in anything.
