Another series I won't bother to watch...5 am starts local time for me (eugene is just a couple hours drive away to the north but would get an extra hour to sleep in). Seriously tho, I hate T20s, thank god the WC is going to be every 4 years.
I hope we can tour ZIM for 2-3 tests in April. Might convince the ZC to use them as warmups ahead of bigger series vs India, SL, and NZ.

Looks that way for sure. But sure hope a 3 test series happens in Zim sometime this year. Test cricket is definitely our forte and our admin don't have the brains to understand that. Shorter the game, the more we suck.
Well according to the FTP, the India tour is at the front end of June and NZ at the very end of July. My guess is firm dates haven't been decided on by ZC (BCB decides dates last minute usually).
India's 1 test, 3 ODI tour should take more than 14 days total, leaving 5 weeks for a BD test tour. 15 days of play with 6-8 days between matches and 5 days for a tour match is exactly 4 weeks. Becomes more doable if it becomes a 2 test series since Zim only have 2 grounds.
