  • The International Cricket Council has reduced the number of teams to 10 for the upcoming 2019 WC.

    Seven teams from the top eight, excluding England, will automatically get qualified for the tournament. The remaining two spots will be filled after the ICC World Cup Qualifiers to be held in Bangladesh in 2018.

    Host England gets direct entry to the 2019 World Cup.

  • Quote

    We have to look at commercial side also: ICC

  • In March 2015, ICC Chief Executive, Dave Richardson, had said, "There are lots of commercial implications to consider. We also need to have a look at the attendances at all the associate games, what were the viewing figures, and see where they really stand."

  • Controversy

  • The decision by ICC of having only 10 teams for the tournament has seen wide criticism from many of the associate members of the ICC.

    Even though no associate members have ever reached the knockout stage of the tournaments, teams like Ireland and Afghanistan have shown considerable growth in their performance by beating full member nations in major tournaments.
