England v India: Heather Knight wants five-day women's Tests after latest draw

England captain Heather Knight says she would like to see women's Tests played over five days after their one-off match against India ended in a draw.

England play a Test every two years as part of the Women's Ashes multi-format series, but India had not previously played one for seven years. Asked if she would like to see five day Tests, Knight said: "100% - we just ran out of time a little bit."I think if there was another day, what a finish that would have been."There was criticism when it was announced that the Bristol match would be played on a used pitch - an oversight for which the England and Wales Cricket Board later apologised.

"The pitch was absolutely fine. We saw a little bit of turn at lunch on day one which isn't ideal," Hartley told Test Match Special.
