You are joking of course!
Strategies I've suggested included highly specialised substitute
fielders who will be on the field at all times; tests played on rock
hard dust bowl pitches in Wagga Wagga, Kalgoorie, Bourke and anywhere
else we can find that has a 45degC average midday temperature;
offering the travelling Poms an outback hotel diet of burned chops,
pie floaters and mystery bags (sorry mate, the regular chef's got the
sandy blight!); at least two tests under floodlights in a flood;
taking the teams off intemittently for harsh light and feral pig
alerts; abandoning one test due to a native title claim; legislating
that all visiting international players spend a mandatory two month
quarantine in a migrant detention centre; introducing Freddy and that
South African to a couple of Melbourne Pub bouncers...

(Some think that cricket is a matter of life and death or at the very
least a metaphor for the whole of human endeavour - but we know that
it's much more serious than that).
