As an Australian it took me years to actually find the game enjoyable. A lot of the enjoyment of test cricket (the multi day games the OP speaks of) is in the tactics. But what makes the experience sweet is individual moments of brilliance, like Shane Warne's "bowl of the century".

I think that even non sport-fans can agree that to put so much spin on a ball is quite incredible.
