ICC World T20

Yesterday was a wonderful day of cricket with two nail biting finishes. It should not go unnoticed that both matches featured the two qualifying teams (Bangladesh and Afghanistan).

I really do hope that the ICC have a re-think when it comes to reducing the number of teams in future World Cups. We need to grow the game and both of these sides have added great quality and excitement.

Especially Bangladesh, they are playing exceptional cricket over the past few years. They are here to stay.
And teams like Ire, Zim, Afg are a treat to watch. I think atleast it should be increased to 12 teams participating in the main tournament with 6 teams in each group.

Today's two matches will go a long way to shaping the semi-finals. A win for West Indies guarantees them a place in the semi-finals and likely top spot in the group (and avoiding New Zealand). It would also leave South Africa on the outside looking in.

In the other match, a loss for Pakistan eliminates them and sets up a showdown between India and Australia for a place in the final four. Australia would technically still be alive if they lose but would then be reliant upon a big win over India to boost their net run rate.
