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?

Pakistan are here for tests in November/December.
