There are 3 reasons of it - The game (Test Cricket) itself is so beautiful, it's so interesting & colossal, it is bound to generate enormous fun always, 2nd - The managers of the game manage it so well - The ICC, the BCCI & all the associated Cricket boards & associations plan the fixtures so well & beautifully, scheduling interesting series, hosting it at interesting places & presenting it in such qualitative manner, & the 3rd - The players these days are so outstanding - They work hard day night, switch to other formats so swiftly, are adaptive in their participation approach & dedicate so much to the work, due to all this the game had to be superfabulous. There was pandemic interruption in between, one of the nations (Pakistan) had been banned from hosting matches in its country in between, Zimbabwe was going through a turmoil, the constrictions of the pandemic were hard & testing, despite this, there was a heartmongering Ashes, a leisuring Bangladesh series, an imagination tickling Test series between Pakistan & Australia, one & a half superflambuoyant IPLs, some blood infusing innings like Blackwood's one against England & an unprecedented Indian winter, all this & the yet to climax WTC final & awaited Indian summer in July. What more can one ask for? Cricket has evolved into too priceless a commodity eternally. & It's dimensions are also plural. I salute this institution of sporting genius with a proud head & outpouring heart & wish it flies like this only uninterrupted by external disturbances like weather, politics & commercialisation.
