The finals and semis of CLT20 are quite obviously bigger than a one-off T20 international (or Test for that matter). The WI players skipped a Test for this too so not surprising and the right call.
Internationals are just not well suited to being the primary form for any modern sport to be played.

From what I can see this ThinkingCricket guy might as well rename himself Thinking20TwentyCricket.

He seems to have some unconventional views, or maybe his national team arent exactly the best in test matches?

He says "Tests are going the way of the dodo and while I like Tests, I am happy to see them go simply because of the sheer condescension and superiority which Test fans behave." which is a sentence that looks as though it was written by two different ppl, how can you like tests, but be happy to see them go? What a muppet.

Thanks for the entertainment though Bob :)

Nice cricket there Kieron, looks like he's all padded up, but could be prone to lbw, tricky to get those long legs moving.
