Zimbabwe captain Heath Streak has voiced his support for measures to bring in more excitement into Test cricket and preferred an odd number of Test matches in a series to ensure a greater probability of a result.

"Obviously, it (two-Test series) is not an ideal scenario. You don't want a case where the result is one-all. I think the people like to see a result," Streak said talking to reporters after his team's practice session ahead of the first Test against India starting in Bulawayo tomorrow.

"The World Test championship is a good thing and it will add a bit of excitement. When more Tests are played and rankings start to fall in place, it will make the game more interesting for all cricket lovers," he said.
