It is bullshark that it's only a 2 test series though. I personally think that all international tours should be 3 match series for each format. No 7 match ODI series, no 2 match test series.

Every series? I wouldn't like to see the Ashes turn in to a 3 match series tbh.

Fair enough, the ashes can stay as it is. I'm not against more tests. I'd personally prefer all test series to be 5 matches and 3 ODI/T20s but that isn't going to happen. The point is more that it ensures a balance across formats.

The whole way these series are scheduled just pisses me off. 12 home ODIs against SL in a 12 month period? No tests against Pakistan when they tour here? Only two tests against Aussie in our first home series against then in ages?
