ICC to expand to 16 teams for Icc T20 World Cup 2014

The International Cricket Council (ICC) executive board has decided to expand the number of teams in the 2014 Twenty20 World Cup in Bangladesh from 12 to 16 to give more opportunities to the non-test playing nations. What excites me is this decision to extend the World T20 event, which takes place in 2014 in Bangladesh, International Cricket Council (ICC) Chief Executive Haroon Lorgat told reporters in Dubai on Monday.

From then onwards the board has decided to expand the event to 16 cricket teams. I’m sure that is very comforting to all associates and affiliates…it provides them with a greater chance of competing on the global stage. The Twenty20 World Cup will be played this year in Sri Lanka from Sept 18-Oct 7 between 12 cricket teams. The current 10 full members will be joined by six qualifiers in the next version from 2014.
