Britain captain Alastair Cook said players had "nothing to fear" from the presentation of a focuses framework as previous captain Mike Atherton said his response to the proposition was one of "significant aloofness".
Thursday's first Test amongst England and Sri Lanka is set to break new ground by being the first in men's cricket where another focuses framework, demonstrated on the one utilized by England and Australia for the ladies' Ashes, will be utilized.
In an offer to give further "setting", the aftereffects of all the worldwide apparatuses this season amongst England and Sri Lanka will be assembled to create a general champ.
English cricket authorities plan to have a comparable framework set up for Pakistan's voyage through England in the second 50% of the season.
Subtle elements on how focuses will be apportioned between Tests, One-Day internationals and T20 Internationals are relied upon to be reported later Wednesday.
Notwithstanding, there have been reports that four focuses will be apportioned to a Test win and two for a draw, with two focuses for a win in 'white-ball' cricket and one for a tie in any of the constrained overs matches.
The framework was acquainted for the ladies' Ashes with keep the trophy being chosen the premise of a solitary Test as female global cricketers play next to no long-shape cricket.
In any case, Cook, talking at Headingley on Wednesday, demanded there was no motivation behind why such a framework couldn't work in the men's diversion too.
"I don't think we have anything to fear about the focuses framework," he said.
"In the event that it works splendid and on the off chance that it catches individuals' creative energies, or do individuals like the effortlessness of the Test arrangement, the one-day arrangement, the T20 arrangement being discrete, then I don't believe there's any damage in observing and seeing.
In the event that it doesn't work it doesn't work yet I think these days, where establishment cricket is pushing the limits of worldwide cricket littler and littler and is evolving that, we must be interested in new thoughts. "Sri Lanka commander Angelo Mathews was apathetic when requested his perspective on the arrangement prior this month and Atherton, writing in Wednesday's version of The Times said: "My response is one of significant lack of interest.
"I comprehend what chairmen are attempting to accomplish, yet until genuine setting and significance is presented through, for instance, a world Test Championship, I'll appreciate Test cricket for what it is, and one-day cricket and T20 cricket for what they are. "He included: "The players are unrealistic to be tricked by endeavors to blend the arrangements.
"In 2009, for instance, England won the Ashes 2-1 and lost the ODI (one-day global) arrangement 6-1, which implies that Australia would have run out the reasonable general victors.
"The truth was that England turned out to be a superior Test group more than five amusements and Australia were a superior one-day group.
"Now and then it is fine to abandon it at that."
