Hockley comes out and says Cricket Australia wants test series to be a minimum of 3 matches and that what South Africa did was a wake up call
If it's a wake up call, dude, you're the one who's asleep at the wheel because the writing has been on the wall for years.
Furthermore, you actually are putting it out there that you're going to play 3 test series against Bangladesh, Afghanistan and Ireland? How about you start with one??
Nick Hockley, if you're on BigFooty let me explain it to you as you're clearly clueless.
TV funds the sport.
TV pays big bucks for T20 series around the world
This is turn means the T20 competitions pay big bucks for players (Except the BBL )
So the players around the world, especially on the fringes, will be attracted by getting paid more for less. Who wouldn't?
This has a massive impact on the test teams of West Indies, South Africa, Afghanistan, and Pakistan.
Less so on New Zealand.
As for Bangladesh and Sri Lanka they're basically non entities.
Minimal on Australia, England and India.
So what's going to happen is that Australia, England and India will just keep playing each other in Test cricket which is want the Big 3 wanted anyway.
