The phrase caught on. Full-strength matches between England and Australia were always given “Test match” status. South Africa, the only other ICC Member before the Wars, also got belated status for their games against England or Australia. Between the Wars, the ICC had three more teams playing Test cricket – the West Indies, New Zealand, and India. This was also the phase when the first women’s Test matches were played.
