    Brendon McCullum is adamant test cricket is the ultimate form of the sport


    The former Black Caps captain now coaching the England men's side reckons that despite their home series against India finishing in a two-all draw it's as good a five match series as he's seen.

    McCullum says the test format can't be beaten for drama and stretching players to breaking point.
