Ha. Interesting. Personally, I mostly only care for tests anyway. The ODI World Cup is far superior to the T20 World Cup though. I'd keep ODIs around for that reason if no other.
I actually wouldn't mind banning T20i entirely. If T20 has to exist, let it stay domestic.
Your stuff about scheduling and pathways reminded me of something. ICC already has rules for full membership and test-playing status. One of those rules is that a country must have a women's team to qualify. They need to enforce this rule. It's ridiculous that the Taliban gets to sports-wash via the ICC just because the government they overthrew was making genuine progress.
Agree strongly that BCCI's influence over the ICC is detrimental to the game, and your ideas around revenue sharing and other management stuff are good ones.
As long as it is never allowed for players to choose to play a T20 rather than a test match.
Bowlers may adjust their run-up angle or foot landing to stay legal which is bad for em too.
Banning t20i is impossible and ridiculous! I know many dont like it, me included, bilaterals in particular. But its unnecessary, impossible and brings barely any benefit
YES. IVE BEEN HARPING ABOUT REMOVING AFGHANISTANS TEST STATUS FOREVER!
Players should absolutely have the right to play what they want! Unless they are centrally contracted. In which case, do your job
Is it possible to have such an action as a fast bowler? I associate the wider action with spin, which, as previously mentioned, tends not to be associated with injuries.
