Gowza, part of the blame lies with the BCB itself. BCCI (plus ECB, CA), while it is dangerously close to destroying the game, and has already a mockery of it, can't be blamed for why we play so few tests. India has actually done their fair share in terms of bilateral series (an away tour would be nice though) with like 4 series so far. But BCB takes the blame for leaving out Tests in 2010 vs NZ. Same thing happened with AUS in 2011. BCB needs to push to have 3 Tests at home vs SL, ZIM, NZ, WI, PAK cuz we're only going to get 2 away. We need to play ZIM and NZ and WI and SL every year, not every 18 months or every 24 months. Home and away. Those are teams we can beat at home, and compete with overseas.

Getting 6 or 7 Tests a year is not difficult if you do that.

Plus 4 dayers against Ireland and Afghanistan should be arranged. Play our Academy side or A team.
