The ICC recently formed a working group, led by former Kiwi batter Roger Twose, to explore the future of Test cricket and improvements to the WTC. A two-tier Test system was a major discussion point at the July annual conference. The two-tier idea has been under consideration for over 15 years.

The Solution to Saving Test Cricket Isn’t to Scale It Down - Mitchell Johnson
In his column for The West Australian, Mitchell Johnson stated that Test cricket can be sustained by supporting emerging cricketing nations. He added that players and fans in smaller cricketing countries remain passionate about the format, even without lucrative TV deals.
"This is where real leadership starts — not by pulling up the ladder, but by building a stronger base. Because let’s be clear: these nations want to play Test cricket. The players want it. The fans want it. So why are we making it so hard? I’ve been to countries where cricket isn’t backed by billion-dollar TV deals — but the passion is still there," he added.
I Don’t Have All the Answers - Mitchell Johnson
“I don’t have all the answers, that’s not in my pay grade, but I can say from an ex-player’s point of view that we need as many countries playing Test cricket as possible. If it wasn’t for Test cricket and its initial financial support, we don’t see Twenty20 cricket like it is today."
Meanwhile, Australia defeated the West Indies in a 3-0 series sweep. New Zealand also recorded wins over Zimbabwe. The Black Caps beat the home side by an innings and 359 runs in the second Test.
