As most of us are aware that the International Cricket Council (ICC) has decided to decrease the number of teams in the 2015 Cricket World cup. The only teams who are granted permission to play in the upcoming 2015 Cricket world cup are the top 10 teams of the ICC. People believe that it's pretty useless to have teams like Ireland, Kenya, Canada and Netherlands in a tournament where the world champs are crowned. It seems very obvious that neither of those four teams will ever be crowned the world champs. The 10 teams who are granted permission to play in the 2015 Cricket World Cup are: Australia, England, New Zealand, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, South Africa, West Indies, Zimbabwe, and lastly Bangladesh. In my opinion, I believe the ICC has made an excellent decision. Honestly, teams apart from the top 10 really make the World Cup boring because whichever team plays against them manages to win no matter what, which makes the matches considered as one-sided matches. An example would be the first 9 matches of the 2011 Cricket World Cup in the Sub-Continent. Those first 9 matches have really been one-sided, which pretty much started taking away people's interest from the World Cup. In conclusion, these teams should really not be allowed to play in big tournaments like the World Cup and to give these teams a chance to play, there should be a tournament hosted especially for these associated teams.
