As announced earlier, each nation would play 8 tests each and then a winner would be decided on the basis of various factors. Here is how the tournament will figure out to be.

We will be having 4 bi-lateral series going on simultaneously, one after the other.

The 8 teams are represented by the 8 letters and the "All 'No.'" implies the number of matches each team would complete at that stage.

You can select your squad for your first bi-lateral series.
A 15 members' squad will be enough.
