    The question is gibberish, but the rules for innings in test cricket are quite simple. Team A bats first, team B bats second. Then team A bats again, then team B bats again. The only exception to this is if Team B do not get within 200 runs of Team A's score the first time they bat; in this case Team A have the choice of whether to bat themselves as would normally happen or to make Team B bat for a second time straight away (so the order would be A-B-B-A instead of the usual A-B-A-B)... this is known as making Team B "follow on". That is the ONLY way in which the standard order of innings of A-B-A-B can alter.

    Hopefully you can find the answer to whatever question you were trying to ask in that explanation.

    • Correct. Just FYI, follow-on target is 200 in a Test match, 150 in a four- or three-day game, 100 in a two-day game.
