Stewart Backs Change

Thoughts?
I am a bit surprised about Stewart's comments. But if they want to reduce the number of matches, I really think playing opponents once per season instead of twice is the way to go. Reducing the number of counties can't work.
As for Kabir Ali, can he really add anything to his game? Unless he becomes Pollock-like in terms of accuracy and consistency, he won't threaten too many world class batsmen.
And Steve Rhodes, well I think he should have played more international cricket. Was unlucky but got overtaken by Stewart and Russell.
