Duleep Trophy much more exciting than International test cricket

Who would have thought that there will come a day when Cricket watchers in India will find the Duleep trophy final much more exciting than International cricket.The series between the No 1 and No 2 of the world in cricket(IndVSA) has failed to live up to its expectations.Kallis and Amla literally killed my interest in watching the match with the least attractive strokeplay ever and on the other hand Yusuf pathan was going all guns blazing chasing an improbable 500+ runs in the secong innings.The fact that he scored more than 200 runs at the strike rate of 110 reinforced my interest in that match.Kallis and Amala could take a leaf out of his innings and try to be more entertaining than to bore the hell out of us.This year has been wonderful for Indian domestic cricket - both the Ranji and Duleep Trophy finals have been peaches and even the Indian media has started to take notice.
