1) Taking Test Cricket to New Centers like Indore, Raipur, Ranchi, etc.
2) Day Night Test Matches at Metros.
3) Strong Domestic Ranji Trophy with not more then 10 teams.
4) Involving School kids with free passes, to generate better awareness, BCCI in any case earns a lot from IPL.
I always enjoyed test Cricket but more importantly healthy contest between 2 teams be it any format.....

1. First thing curators should look upon the pitches.. Stop making flat pitchs so should we be revoked from flat track bullies tag. And your mentioed place are well know for run feast. So sporting pitches should be made urgent prior basis. Even 3 days green top tests satisfay way better that these tons of ton run feast in India and it will decrease home advantage to a great instant as well.

2.That the idea BCCi should be initiated shortly. And you know Icc already provided the green flag to DAY NIGHT Test and it 'll be implementing soon enough to make it most popular .

3.I still very much satisfied with present format.The revised format of Ranji Trophy (3 x 9 teams) is giving it a new twist; in that there is no threat of relegation to the plate even though by implication Group C will be seen as the poorer cousin given that only two teams qualify from it to the knock out stage. However the grouping does provide a good mix with teams of different cailbre will be fighting it out for the advanced stage. This will make the Ranji Trophy competitive, but it is a disappointment that nothing innovative has been done with the points system especially for outright wins.

4. Good chocke point,is'nt it? And going through BCCI policy and bonding, its hardly gonna happen,at least i'll be amazed if that happend any time sooner. I am a die hard longer format fan, anyday i will enjoy with no boring and bound if it plays in my home city.Thats it.
And I'm sure test cricket will prevail as talent is more essential and glee viewing anyday than just slogging....
