continued from page 1
chief executive officer was now the Proteas’ CEO. They, apparently, wanted a Test more; we wanted one fewer. Dalmiya himself was quoted as saying that an altered schedule might be arrived at and sent to Johannesburg at the end of the day.
But Bengal was only notionally in the foreground.
It was someone else&’s game and Dalmiya knew its rules all right.
The sub-plot was never to eclipse the plot. We all know why a full Test series was not to be asked for, regardless of who was calling the shots, Dalmiya or Srinivasan, and that is where the ordinary cricket fan comes in. Or, doesn’t.  
Between Twenty20s and Tests, the board&’s choice is clear.
No marks for the right answer for you can’t get it wrong.
