In an article published on August 23, 2026, Justin Langer, the former Australian opener, criticised the rise of Test matches finishing in two days after Australia routed Bangladesh in a Test match.
He called the trend "unacceptable", saying it could jeopardise the sport's integrity and financial viability and attributing it to fundamental weaknesses in batting skills and footwork.
Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto acknowledged the tough conditions and emphasised the importance of gaining more international experience.
