Test matches not profitable unless it’s against the Big Three

Former Cricket West Indies president, Whycliffe “Dave” Cameron.

Former president of Cricket West Indies, Whycliffe “Dave” Cameron believes that it is not profitable to host Tests in the Caribbean unless it’s one of the Big Three nations of England, Australia or India.

Cameron, who recently was making a bid for the chairmanship of the International Cricket Council (ICC) appeared on NewsX earlier this week where he shared his views on the profitability of Test matches in the West Indies  and elsewhere amidst the rise of T20 Internationals.

“I dare say the West Indies need to be invited to these geographies to play because a Test match in the West Indies today is a dead-rubber unless it’s against India, England or Australia where we get revenues from television,” Cameron reckoned.
