This proposal is a bad idea. The priority of the ICC should be to improve the quality of the game by helping every team become better. They should not just be looking to make money and help only certain countries keep their money and status. Sithumini Kalansuriya (Student)

This is an unfair move which is being pushed forward so that India, England and Australia can keep control of the game. S. Shanmuganathan (Photographer)

Furore over proposed ICC changes

Section Sports

India, Australia and England want to exert all the power in the game but they know they can’t do this for long through their performances alone so that’s why they are trying to force such action. H.D.A. Sampath (Three-wheeler driver)

Furore over proposed ICC changes

Section Sports

If you are doing anything in sport it should be fair and serve all teams equally. In sport no one party should be allowed to dominate unfairly. Ruwan Ranatunga (Private sector employee)

Furore over proposed ICC changes

Section Sports

The two-tier system will make Test cricket more competitive but it should be done in a fair way through which any team can be relegated. And things should be worked out so that every team gets an equal share of the finances. If the ICC wants to develop Test cricket they should reassess the Future Tours Programme and look to start the World Test Championship. Mohamed Riza Thahir (Cricket coach)

Furore over proposed ICC changes

Section Sports

Such a plan does not favour smaller countries, or those trying to come up, at all. At the end of the day though, the game is all about money now and those who have lots of it can call the shots. Randika Perera (Businessman)

Furore over proposed ICC changes

Section Sports

This is all about money and power. Nowadays, cricket-wise, if India is involved it is usually always about money. Just look at the IPL. If things keep proceeding this way, players will eventually lose their motivation to turn out for their countries. Nisal Yasith (Student)

Furore over proposed ICC changes

Section Sports

Each country should be allowed to stand by itself. This is a proposal which will only help some people line their pockets. It is undemocratic and will only properly serve the big powers or so-called big powers of the game. I say so-called big powers because if you take England for instance, they have still not even won a World Cup. But a country like Sri Lanka has shown that although we are small in terms of money and power, we have so much talent and a proud cricketing identity. Nelson Mendis (Cricket coach)

Furore over proposed ICC changes

Section Sports

This is all about Big Money teams keeping their traditional places and smaller teams being kept out of decision-making. How is such a proposal being put forward without the views and suggestions of other Test countries being taken into account? The ICC should make such decisions more inclusive. E. Ekanayake (Private sector employee)

Furore over proposed ICC changes

Section Sports

I’m not supportive of such a proposal. I feel that whatever finances are distributed, should be distributed equally. They won’t be able to develop standards this way. And if there is a system of relegation it should apply to all, then only will it create more competition. Anura Tennakoon (Former Test captain)
