Setting new Test trend?

Its latest accomplishment seems to be a deliberate attempt to shorten the longer version of the game, by reducing a five-day Test match three days. While the players have been known by nature to be trendy, this is by no means a style that another team would like to adopt, unless of course it is the winning team.

This brings to mind a recent joke I heard. Two teams were engaged in a match. The first to bat made 101 runs. The other team made two fifty and lost. How? It made fifty in the first innings and fifty in the second. Any team comes to mind? I wonder if the cameraman is to blame?
