Summary at a Glance

Michael Vaughan backs radical plan to split Test cricket into two divisions Bosses are set to discuss a revamp that would allow India, Australia and England to schedule series against each other more often.

Former England captain Michael Vaughan has thrown his support a revamp of Test cricket that would introduce a two-tier system to the sport.

Series featuring India, Australia and England generate significantly more revenue than against other nations, with bumper crowds enjoyed for the recent five-Test Border-Gavaskar Trophy clash Down Under.

Talks are set to begin this year about its replacement as boards look to maximise television broadcast revenue and combat the threat of franchise T20 leagues.

That would leave the West Indies, Zimbabwe, Ireland, Bangladesh and Afghanistan in tier two.
