The CEO of International Cricket Council, Haroon Lorgat has informed that the ICC World Cup 2015 which will be co-hosted by Australia and New Zealand will be among 10 teams only instead of 14. But, 16 teams will get chance in the ICC World Twenty20.

The opinion of the council is that while the Twenty20 format is quite suitable for promoting cricket world-wide the 50-overs format may be reserved for the powerful teams as it will prove the competitiveness of the teams.

Mr. Lorgat also announced that the venues for India’s quarter final and semi-final of the current World Cup series will be Ahmedabad and Mohali in case the Indian team reaches to those levels. In the pre-tournament ratings of the hosting countries – Bangladesh, India and Sri Lanka – India was top-seeded and as a result the Indian team will be playing all the matches at home if they could make it to the knock-out stage.

As a result of reduction of participating teams in the next World Cup, Kenya, Netherlands and Ireland will be denied entry. The Kenyan all-rounder Steve Tikolo expressed his displeasure during the team’s practice session us Chennai.

Tikolo disagreed with the ICC and stated that reducing number of teams in World Cup will hamper globalization of the game. The Chief Executive of Kenya Live Cricket Match Tom Sears also felt it unfair to deny them the opportunity to play with top teams.

In the 2003 World Cup held in South Africa, the Kenyan team reached up to semi final and afterwards their performance had been not up to that level. Tikolo said that the current team consists of young and enthusiastic players and the recent matches in South Africa, India and Sri Lanka were of much benefit to them.

The euphoria over the World Cup Cricket 2011 is already there. So also the heated arguments and debates about the final winner. The cricket lovers in general and experts are all of the same view that including the defending champions Australia, there are four strong contenders for the finals. Two of the hosting teams – India and Sri Lanka are expected to be ahead in the race and South Africa is the fourth strong contender.

But, it is not over with that! The two black horses – England and Pakistan –  cannot be under estimated.

Ricky Ponting and his boys are passing through a season of defeats. However, history says that the Aussies know how to win the World Cup 2011 at last. Moreover, none can ignore that in the ODI rating of ICC they are still at the peak.

Nobody will deny that South African team is as strong as a rock. They are capable of defeating all the other teams. But will they? It is a million dollar question. They lack consistency in performance. After an uninterrupted winning spree during the initial matches hey play funny cricket in the final stage. Their performance used to be so unreliable that the players themselves will be taken aback on viewing their miserable performance during the finals.

According to the national selector of Sri Lanka, Roy Dias, the team under the leadership of Kumar Sangakkara is well balanced. Muttiah Muralitharan, Rangana Herath, Ajantha Mendis and Tilakaratne Dilshan have made the team extremely rich in variety bowling.  Upul Tharanga, Sangakkara, Thisara Perera and Thilina Kandamby form a strong group of left-handed batsmen.

The Indian team is a wonderful blend of stalwarts and highly skillful youngsters. MS Dhoni as a skipper with proven track record, the great Tendulkar, the blasting performers like Sehwag, Pathan and Gambhir make a team that is expected to repeat the great victory of 1983.

In fact, for Pakistan, this World Cup is too early since they are just limping back after the worst downfall due to the scandal. However, Captain Sohaib Akhtar believes that his team has to win so as to ensure the return of cricket to Pakistan.

The England skipper Andrew Strauss believes that his team will surprise everyone by winning the World Cup through adventurous cricket.
