India is scheduled to play 7 Tests in the year 2010. Following India’s ascent to No.1 in ICC Test rankings, the BCCI has come in for criticism for paucity of Test matches.

Though this imbalance is not of BCCI’s (Future Tours Programme) making, the BCCI swiftly moved to address it.

Reports are now emerging that Cricket South Africa and South African Players now favour converting their oncoming 5-match ODI tour to a 2 Tests- 3 ODI Series.

In short, it means both India and South Africa now have an opportunity for shoot – out to decide who is truly the No.1 ranked Test team.
