Cricket Talk

 Last week, ICC said that participating teams, it is possible that the World Cup could be reduced and the World Twenty20 expanded. I support the first and oppose the later suggestion. It is a very stupid move. There are already 10 full test playing nations among the 14 allowed who will ask to be qualified automatically. Without increased participation, the world cup will not get any more interest like the recently concluded  Asia cup .Like I have said elsewhere, ICC is basing it’s decisions based on money and not the game. There should be 16 teams for the ODI version and 32 for T20. That is, if ICC wants to show that it cares for the game. That it cares for Afghanistan too and not just it’s neighbors.
