Ideally all series would be minimum 3 Tests, however there are clear mitigating factors here. Perhaps the main point is the increased revenue PCB will get if they cut a Test Match and add ODIs and a T20. What strategies are the PCB - and indeed the ICC and Cricket Australia - using to promote Test cricket to the increasing television audiences engaged by short form cricket? In a similar vein what are the PCB and Cricket Australia doing to promote this series to their respective cricket audiences? For example, the BBL in Australia has drawn in huge audiences.

The series against South Africa and Pakistan could be promoted in those spaces http://www.megamoneyideas.com/ . It is with great sadness that the current Test series between Pakistan and Sri Lanka is sparsely attended http://www.silvanamails.net .

Some great cricket is being played http://www.jillsclickcorner.com . Surely cricket authorities can do more to promote the game and improve Test Match interest and attendance http://www.downlinerefs.com .
