Since the Australian tour of England in 2013, the competition is decided on a points system, taking account of One-Day Internationals and Twenty20 International matches as well as Tests. Four (previously six) points[3] are awarded for a Test victory (two points to each side in the event of a draw), and two points for a victory in a limited-overs game.
