Pakistan play fewer Tests than most because the other teams do not want to tour the country due to security concerns.



“I would advise our board to not only raise Test match fees ... but also create a big difference in the fees paid for all three formats,” said Ajmal, 35, who has taken 147 wickets in 28 tests and 146 wickets in 92 ODIs.

“Test cricket should form the basis for our doing well in the other formats. Unless we excel in the longer form we will face a crisis.

“There is too much Twenty20 cricket and that is hurting Test cricket.”
