Rumours are that Ireland are going to be given test status has early as April..
Hopefully that will lead to a 3 tier test championship..
3 tier you may ask??? yes 10 teams in two divisions and India playing in their own league at home
Current standings would be
League 1
Australia
South-Africa
England
New-Zealand
Pakistan
League 2(including Ireland)
Sri-lanka
west-indies
Bangladesh
Zimbabwe
Ireland
and league 3
India..

Indian cricketer Mohit Ahlawat hit an extraordinary 72-ball triple century in a local Twenty20 match in Delhi.
The 21-year-old hit 39 sixes, including five off the final over, as he posted a round 300 and his team Maavi finished on 416-2.
He was probably facing some of the 7/8 year olds the indian board bussed in for the test series to make the grounds seem full.

Maybe Morgan can represent his true country in tests?

Ireland can take him back.. But I think its more likely Morgan will play 20/20 for huge money then play test cricket for Ireland.

Ah, I take it England are out scouting again since Morgan isn't all he turned out to be?

At least its not a closed shop.. I doubt many indian teams have any non Indians in them!,
Like the Bradford leagues.. entire teams with all Indians and Pakistanis playing in them. I doubt that would happen elsewhere.

You mean a group of friends forming a team together? Yeh, that's the same thing.

Dropping a triple centurion happens only in India. We are fortunate enough to have such luxury.
My neighbors are finding it difficult to find batsmen who can score 30+ runs consistently. Also certain teams have to steal or rely from sources outside their country!
