Forgotten opener, WA veterans snubbed in central contract shake-up as CA name 23-player list

The latest decision made by the ICC has to be seen as one of the most damaging decision’s on the game of cricket.
The ICC is the governing body that runs cricket and should look after it and make sure competition is strong and continues to grow. By cutting the 50-over World Cup to ten teams shows that the people who run the game have no idea.
The 50-over World Cup has promoted countries to Test status. Look at Bangladesh, who were handed Test status due to their performance at the 1999 World Cup.
In 2003, Kenya made it the semi finals, while Ireland made the top eight in 2007. In the two previous World Cups, the majority of the Test teams have been that poor in the their results that the ICC should question their involvement!
So now the growth of game, with teams on the second-tier like Canada, Holland, Ireland, Scotland and Afghanistan, will go missing. It doesn’t make sense.
Now the only way you can contest the 50-over World Cup is to be a Test nation. How is Twenty20 cricket going to grow the game seriously?
The whole World Cup process should be in question. The World Cup was so badly organised, bad pitches, no crowds and a farcical finish to the final. So that meant for the ICC to make their money back they awarded the next World Cup to the sub-continent instead of Australia/New Zealand.
Already this World Cup has trouble as not all venues will have the referral system in place, which should be mandatory in every game at this level.
