2015 ICC CRICKET WORLD CUP WILL INCLUDE 10 TEAMS


The International Cricket Council has made decision that 10 teams will participate in the World Cup has now confirmed its decision to decrease the team numbers for the World Cup 2015 from 14 to 10 which shows that there will be no place for Ireland who beat England in recent tournament of the 2011 World Cup.



The ICC teams who will play the tournament includes India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, England, South Africa, New Zealand, Australia, West Indies, Bangladesh and Zimbabwe.
But for the 2019 event the 10 teams will be decided by the qualification process. Firstly the ICC decided to make a 12-team tournament in the ICC's executive board meeting in Mumbai but which was rejected by the other members. The Irish captain is not happy with this decision.
