I agree, 4-day tests are way overdue. I'm when old enough to remember the Currie Cup contests of 3 days & there were many exciting matches! Declarations were commonplace. A wasted 5th day costs many thousands of rands to spectators, vendors & host. Thursday to Sunday, or Friday to Monday (because they often end on 3rd). Cheers.
