England's historic Lord's ground,
considered the Mecca of Cricket, is
being discussed as the likely venue for
the final of the proposed ICC Test
Championship, The Guardian reported
on Sunday (June 12).
Lord's serves as a preferred option,
primarily because of a far greater
following for Test cricket in England,
unlike in most other countries where
stadiums have run empty for many
years.
Even as the many aspects of the
tournament need detailed planning,
including scheduling and format, at
the moment, David Richardson, chief
executive of the International Cricket
Council (ICC), had earlier stated that
the tournament could start in 2019.
However, as per latest reports, the
tournament could take place as early
as next year.
The plan involves making Test cricket
a two-tier structure, divided into seven
and five teams respectively with
promotion and relegation system in place. --- Read More Lord's likely to host ICC Test Championship final - Cricbuzz
