ridiculous post. if you really believe we're so weak as to "keep losing" to most associates, then why would we warrant test status to begin with?
i also think we should play associates with our A team and perhaps Academy or U19ers. But to suggest that the likes of Ireland, Afghanistan would pose a threat in the longer version is quite farfetched. We might lose a 4-dayer every 10th time, but even if we didnt have the firepower to bowl someone twice in 4 days, we'd secure draws with relative ease.
Its one thing to be deluded into believing we're a top tier team, quite another to have zero self belief.
