    It Is All Based On Crowds And Revenues: Rashid Latif On On Two-tier Test System Proposal

    By IANS News January 08, 2025 • 14:50 PM View: 820
    ICC Chairman Jay Shah: Former Pakistan captain Rashid Latif gave a neutral view on the two-tier system in the Test cricket, an issue that is currently most talked about, and believes that the push to divide Test cricket into two tiers was driven by crowd sizes in different countries.

    Reports suggested that Australia, England and India representatives will meet ICC Chairman Jay Shah later this month to discuss about a potential two-tier Test system starting in 2027. It came after the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series in Australia which drew a record crowd in the stadium.

    "I see this scheme as a neutral person. We have seen good crowds in England, Australia and India during Test matches while we see fans in Bangladesh, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, the West Indies, and even in New Zealand, do not come to the grounds when longer format matches are played, so this was imminent.
