Birmingham, July 30:  Former Australia captain Steve Waugh believes the ICC World Test Championship (WTC) is a great concept and will add more excitement to the longest format of the game.

Getting underway on August 1 with the first Ashes Test in Birmingham, the inaugural WTC will see the top nine Test teams in the world -- Australia, Bangladesh, England, India, New Zealand, Pakistan, South Africa, Sri Lanka and the West Indies -- compete in 71 Test matches across 27 series, played over two years.
