Why are they still testing cricket? You'd think that by now they would have gotten the bugs worked out of it.

You can't get the bugs out of it because cricket is a bug, duh.

Curses! Couldn't pull Afghanistan.

Which reminds me...can't wait for the "Buzkashi Countries" quiz!

I may condone England being on this quiz, but the West Indies is not a sovereign nation.

Perhaps people should lose half of all their points every time they post a comment that ignores anything in the instructions.

I made this comment after reading the instructions (which I always do before taking a quiz)

It is like I was told in school: When in doubt about a question, look at the directions; it is amazing what they will tell you.

Would you prefer we call it the combined team of The Leeward Islands, Windward Islands, Barbados, Guyana, Jamaica, and Trinidad and Tobago?

Might be a good idea for member countries of the 'West Indies' test cricket team to be answers on this quiz.

Thanks for the idea for this quiz!

Nations and Territories that make up the West Indies Cricket Team

Hopefully this will satisfy any nitpickers out there!

Well for that matter, "Ireland" is not a single country either - but in Cricket and Rugby the Republic and Northern Ireland play as a united team. If you know anything about cricket, you know that the West Indies are a test cricket "nation".

Easy 12/12 on this test.... I mean, quiz!

As much as I am not a fan of cricket, despite growing up in Zimbabwe, it was a really great quiz. The only two I didn't get were the West Indies (I was trying Jamaica and Barbados knowing that they play cricket, I didn't think to expand) and Afghanistan.

I only missed England because I put UK

Saw the caveat so I tried UK, Scotland and Wales. Never tried England!

I am the opposite of a nitpicker, which is why I tried West Indes like 5 times. Can you be less nitpicky on this spelling?

“Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.” You could have tried a different spelling or two, surely...

Is "Test Cricket Nations" the right title for this quiz? I get the non-literal usage of the term "Country" in application to sports. But haven't heard "Nations" being used in the same way.

Just wondering, I'm not claiming to know much about Cricket or sports terminology. (I skip most of the sports quizzes usually haha)

Level 59

Yes, it is correct. You claim to know nothing about cricket then come to tell us this is wrong anyway?

Level 81

Aug 29, 2022

Maybe just "Test Cricket Teams?" That would remove the need for the caveat as well.
