To be honest, ICC can't play dirty in including more asian sides, if you start mapping then, associate asian sides are doing much better then associates of other continents. There are 8 asian associate sides between 10 to 30 in ICC T20 Rankings. Asian associates are not only developing their games but also trying to build infrastructure it will be harsh if ICC forcefully stops considering them.sam_ahm wrote: ↑Fri Oct 22, 2021 4:46 pmSo with 12 places confirmed for 2022, there is scope for only 4 more spots.
Ireland, Netherlands and Zimbabwe should take 3 of those unless ICC puts all of them in the same group to ensure more Asian countries getting through.
ICC can play dirty, I don't trust them at all.
Other than the above 3,who are the contenders? Oman, UAE, Nepal, any other?
I mean, this part is clear and complete bollocks considering we've got Namibia and Scotland in the Super 12's and no Asian sides. Nepal didn't even get out of their sub regional qualifier In the last major Associate event, the 2019 Global Qualifier, the top 5 finishers were all non-Asian.Rajkumar Sharma wrote: ↑Fri Oct 22, 2021 5:35 pmI would love to see USA & Canada in next edition of T20WC.

I don't consider them to be teams at all, I like to see home grown players as in Namibia, Netherlands, Scotland, Kenya, PNG, Nepal etc... Otherwise what is the purpose of having a team. I saw Canada back in 2011 WC, I don't think even a single player was home grown.
I like Nepal, at least they have home grown players.
ICC often tries to get a lot of Asian countries as they see more 'market' in these places. For example ICC can make groups to ensure UAE and Oman get through to target a bigger audience in the Middle East.
ICC's interest in USA is also to target the large Asian population that now exists in the country.

That's isn't an issue England team for so many years have played with quite a few South African Aussie born players now they have also hunted players from New Zealand & Barbados. Sikh community can't be considered as indian contingent as they nearly exist in every nation with certain % of population.Hope Asians plays an important role in comming years to bring local players into the game in these nations. Asians has raised the game, creating interest in crowds, which other continents have failed and ICC needs to consider it. Profit is everything for ICC and therefore Asian cricket is quite ahead then other continents and stadiums filled with crowds in associate nation games will certainly attract ICC
