  Criccontest.com TEST RATINGS [As on May 1, 2008]  
     
  Test cricket can be, for instance, unspeakable, as drab and futile as a fruitless journey. Cricket allows for the draw, a result that has little in common with the tie or the dead heat. It is both curious and lifelike that a game should exist in which two sides play for the best part of the week without deciding who has won. Draw can be used to describe both an outcome in which neither team is within a mile of winning, and one in which one side has utterly outplayed the other but still requires a single wicket or run.

All game like life, serves up a variety of blows. For a batsman, virtually every innings implies a test of character and we reward players/Teams for consistent performance with our all new Criccontest.com Test rating……
