If you were on the board of the ICC, what would you to to improve test cricket?
I have always wondered what it would be like if the ICC introduced a two, or even 3 tier league test system, so the top 5 teams would play each other twice home and twice away over a two year cycle, with the winner recieving a trophy and the 2 lowest teams being replaced by the 2 leaders of the next tier down. It would give teams like Canada, Scotland, Kenya and Holland a chance to be exposed to better opposition. I think it would generate interest and make the game more widespread.
I am interested in hearing your ideas.
To use an example (according to current ICC rankings)
Tier 1
India
South Africa
Australia
Sri Lanka
England
Tier 2
Pakistan
New Zealand
West Indies
Bangladesh
Kenya
Tier 3
Zimbabwe
Holland
Canada
Scotland
Ireland

A more convenient points table should be used for result of a test match... we have seen a major draw games where one team bats a long innings and other team saves d match in tis second innings and the result wud be draw... instead f teams r awarded with points like in domestic circuit the eager for results wud increase and interest for the game will be more... Test championship every three yrs will also help to improve test cricket...

This is the way it should be. I support this idea.
Group 1 should have - Australia, England, South Africa, Pakistan and Sri Lanka.
Group 2 should have - West Indies, India, New Zealand, Zimbabwe and Bangladesh
Group 3 should have - Canada, Kenya, Ireland, Bermuda and Netherlands.
Always one team from Group 1 should be demoted and Group 2 should be promoted. Similarly, demote one team from Group 2 and promote one team from Group 3. This should be done at the end of one year's games.
ICC should develop pitches such a way that atleast a minimum of 30 wkts have to be taken by bowlers. Advanatage should be there for bowlers also.
Top of the Group 1 should be declared as the world's best test match team.

I'd just like to see every country play other opposition an equal number of matches, the past decade Australia have played about 3 times as many Tests and ODI's against India as they have against Pakistan and Sri Lanka. I dont like the tier system, if they are not good enough to play Test cricket they shouldnt be playing.
