The tea break in test cricket is aptly named as traditionally, it is tea that the players have (along with cucumber sandwiches for reasons unknown to me). A test match has 6 hours of play in a given day - 3 sessions of 2 hours each. There is a 40 minute lunch break after session 1, and a 20 minute tea break after session 2. A test match is scheduled for 5 days meaning that there is a maximum of 30 hours of play.

Is the whole 30 hours televised, or do they just show highlights?

The WS baseball is a similar timeframe, it's not that ridiculous.
