2 AnswersCricket5 years agoICC want to increase the depth of international cricket.?
What do they propose to do, decrease the teams in a world cup.
What they should do is increase it to 24 teams with four groups and the two top teams in each group qualify for the quarter finals. With five games in each group and an increase in the playing pool.
T20 is the future with a real chance of entering into the Olympics. 48 teams, two knock out rounds where they play each other twice, then scaled down to 24 and let the competition begin. Who cares about quality its all about making money.

The year England and Australia played the first official test match.

The ICC never existed and therefore they are perfectly entitled to put forward there rights to play Test Match Cricket on an International basis.
3 AnswersCricket7 years agoI can't understand why they cancelled the ICC World Test Championship?
It was three games, two semi-finals and a final. Which would have lasted over two weeks. The ashes series goes for a longer period of time, five consecutive weeks. If the itenary is overloaded get NZ to hold it. It just seems to me it's one of the few sports that doesn't have a World Cup.

They scheduled it for 2013, then they changed to 2017 which now looks likely to be cancelled. They should have a knockout tournament to decide who is number 1 in England the home of Cricket. It is the pinnacle of first class cricket in my opinion.
