Cricket Australia will do an extensive review of the national team's failure to be competitive for most of the Ashes series next Tuesday and is also expected to endorse detailed plans for next summer's expansive city-based Twenty20 competition.

Having already elected to place an extra two expansion teams in NSW and Victoria, the board will decide on the precise locations of those clubs, which will compete alongside rival capital city teams in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide and Hobart.
