ICC should preserve Test cricket, says Wasim Akram

ICC should preserve Test cricket, says Wasim Akram

On ICC chief David Morgan's proposed four-day Test, Wasim said: 'If you have a four-day Test, there are more chances of it ending in a draw. Why will spectators come to watch a dull and drab drawn Test? The ICC, instead, should ensure that Test wickets are sporting and result-oriented.'

The 43-year-old former left-arm fast bowler also disagreed with ex-South African tearaway Allan Donald on legalising ball-tampering.

'I don't know why Donald said that. Ball-tampering is illegal and I am with the ICC on the issue. If you legalise ball-tampering, then bowlers will start doing it from the first over. Ball-tampering is an art and you can only do it after 40-50 overs in Test cricket. It is not possible in ODIs and T20s,' said Akram, who was one of the Pakistani fast bowlers once accused of ball-tampering.
