Cricket

Twenty20 cricket is useful in growing cricket in other markets. Especially those of Africa and Asia where cricket is already fairly integrated but lagging behind football as a national game.

However, it is all well and good for the game to grow and it will because it is a good game. It is up to the ICC to capitalise and to say force South Africa and India to play games against emerging teams in those regions. South Africa did everything they could to avoid ODI against Kenya at a time when Kenya should have really been given full status.

There is no point having an exciting game if the ICC is a corrupt organisation that panders to a few countries just because they vote in a bloc.
