This is GREAT news for us, because by the time this comes around our youngsters will have matured while di other nations will be suffering after dem veterans retire!! :lol: ,

lets look at it, right now we have

Brathwaite
Barath
Darren
Edwards
Roach
Russell
Bishoo
Narine

And we can add a few more names such as Chesney Hughes, Shane Dowrich, Gabriel, Lesporis etc who should be well on their way into the senior team by then,

Here's a list of players i expect to be missing from teams by 2017

India

Dravid
Laxman
Tendy
Sehwag
Khan
Singh


Australia

Watson
Hussey
Ponting
Johnson
Harris
Haddin

South Africa

Steyn
Kallis
Smith
Boucher
Tahir

England

Strous
Pieterson
Anderson
Swann
Tremlett
Bresnon
Trott
prior

Sri-lanka

Paranavitana
Sangakara
Jeawadne
Dislhan
Hereth
Welegedara

Pakistan

Ul Haq
Yunis Khan
Hafeez
ajmal
Rehman
Gul
Cheema

Of course most of them will bring through their own young talent in the next five years, but the question is are they likely to be as good as the veterans they will be replacing? i very much doubt it, especially when you look at India's players, so while everyone will be rushing to find a new hero we might just have a settled side with the young talents who are gaining experience NOW, and that will give us a big advantage over the others imo.

its no great news for test cricket. the championship is needed now regardless of the state of the westindies.

jess look at the empty stadia in Bang and India!

by 2017 test cricket might be declared dead for lack of support..deliberate ICC lack of support. deh want to kill test cricket so deh leave it in need, gasping for breath.

the ICC makes silly, ridiculous schedules, have disrupted global tradional seasonal play and generally made a mess of test cricket. dat is because deh want it dead and helping it to die.

dats is the only reason why deh have put back the test championsh for another 6 years. meanwhile westindies and indai play to empty houses
