A chat with THE GRUMBLER on the future of red ball cricket

In the last few days, we have witnessed the shortest-ever Test match take place in Newlands between South Africa and India, the West Indies announce a weakend squad to tour Australia and the increasing frequency of two-Test series. Also the news that the England tour to India later this month might not make it to UK tv screens, is Test cricket in danger of disappearing up its own backside? But good news does exist, with Edgbaston announcing it has sold out the first three days of the Test match it is hosting this summer, it does seem that there remains an appetite to attend cricket of the highest level. Here, I talk to Richard Clarke aka The Grumbler about what can and might be done. Can Barry Hearn save county cricket?!?!
