No Way, Dude..
Test is both mentally and physically most strenuous format of the game.But 20-20 may be higher intensity.(for a very short period of time,but fielding counts a lot).
20-20 is definitely more demanding and is paving way for the juniors.
For tests which is rather slow and u dont get to see heart thumping moments ... athleticism dont really matter much.
Batsmen need to occupy crease then rather .. But in 20 20 .. there is actually no time of settling in.Fielding side has to be on toes to stop the overflow of runs.

I read in Times Of India .. That Kumble said that since IPL is a contractual obligation he cant afford to miss it.In rather jumbled words he hinted that he will play in IPL Season 2.
