England's Premiere Leagu and First Division footbal is a good example, may be promotion/relegation every year is better in that case.
They won't because they still get to host the home series vs. the Div 1 teams.

With this make up you all matches become meaningful and should generate more interest. Think about this, now a WI-IRE series is meaningful to viewers in NZ and BD since the matches impact their standings. Not only the league but WC qualification could be at stake too.
