There are a couple of great things about watching test cricket in Australia.
One, the pitches make for exciting cricket and most matches produce a result. Batsmen love the ball coming on to the bat and the scoring rates are usually higher than in other parts of the world. Bowlers always have a chance since the pitches have pace and bounce.
The other great thing about test cricket in Australia are the commentators on TV. You get to listen to the likes of Ian Chappell, Mark Taylor, Bill Lawry, Ian Healy and others. Just like there is always something happening on the field, there is always an insight around the corner with these guys. The current series also has the ex-Hampshire captain Mark Nicholas in the commentary box - another good TV commentator.
