By Saurabh Sharma June 13, 2018 • 01:29 AM View: 1375

Bengaluru, June 13 (CRICKETNMORE): Former England captain Kevin Pietersen on Tuesday suggested various methods like day-night Tests, equal pay, marketing and innovation and cheaper tickets to reinvigorate Test cricket.

Speaking at the 6th MAK Pataudi Memorial Lecture, the 37-year-old, who also became the first non-Indian cricketer to deliver the lecture, insisted on making the five-day format the pinnacle of cricket but felt that every format must be respected.
