CAB President Snehasis Ganguly: Cricketing legend and former skipper of West Indies cricket team, Sir Clive Lloyd on Saturday strongly pitched for continuation of test matches besides the popular T20 series.

In his remarks at his felicitation programme organised by the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) here on Saturday evening, the legendary cricketer described T20 as an "exhibition" and a test match as an "examination".

"I have no qualms with T20. I would love to see the players earning their money. But I would love to see either three or five Test matches in any bilateral series. I would call a T20 an exhibition and a test match an examination," he said.
