How to make cricket matches even better!

Here's two ideas that I reckon might improve the way cricket is played.

First, in double-innings matches (Test matches, county championship etc.), the side with the most runs after the first innings should choose who bats first in the second innings. Essentially, this is an enhancement of the follow-on rule, whereby the team that batted first can ask the second team to follow-on if they trail by 200 runs or whatever.

This would seem to increase the likelihood of a result, reducing draws.

My second change would apply to any type of match, and would again effect who batted first. Rather than toss a coin to decide who gets choice of batting, the two captains bid runs for the right to choose. So, I would offer 10 runs, say, to have that right; and if you bid more (which would be added directly to my Total) then you would choose.

Basically, this would just add another dimension to the game, as well as evening up the advantage of the toss.
