Ten-year ICC snub for SA
2013-07-02 09:12


Cape Town - The International Cricket Council has ignored South Africa as host of a major cricket events for at least the next 10 years.

According to the IOL Sport website, India received the lion’s share of the tournaments, while the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) was also generously treated.

South Africa, on the other hand, will only host two minor tournaments - the Under-19 World Cup in 2020 and the Women’s Twenty20 in 2022.

India, who hosted the last 50-overs-a-side World Cup in 2011, are scheduled to host it again in 2023, while they will also be hosting the World Twenty20 in 2016 and the World Test Championship in 2021.

England will get the inaugural World Test Championship in 2017 and the World Cup in 2019, while the World Twenty20 in 2020 will be played in Australia.

Recent leadership rumblings on the Cricket South Africa (CSA) board appear to have contributed to the country not receiving any major competitions.

ICC programme:

World Twenty20 2016 - India
ICC World Test Championship 2017 - England
ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 - England
ICC World Twenty20 2020 - Australia
ICC World Test Championship 2021 - India

This is really sad :(

I thought we might get a nice T20 WC at least.

India 216/3

Utseya to Kohli, OUT, He's holed out in the deep! It was tossed up and Kohli came down the wicket again and struck it quite well. But Vusi Sibanda at long on takes a safe catch

V Kohli c Sibanda b Utseya 115 (108b 13x4 1x6) SR: 106.48

The game is practically over now.
 
Whoa! Are India imploding... 216/4

Utseya to Raina, OUT, He's thrown it away. Caught at extra cover. Another flighted ball. Raina comes down the track, making a little room for himself, but he doesn't get enough elevation. A soft dismissal

SK Raina c Sikandar Raza b Utseya 0 (2b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00

Zimbabwe 228/7 (50 ov)
India 230/4 (44.5 ov)

India won by 6 wickets (with 31 balls remaining)

Easy win in the end for India. Really pleased that Zim didn't give it away too easily.
 
Raining yet again in the Windies expect Pakistan to win with Duckworth Lewis or even if they finish the match.

Pak: 226/5 after 47.5 overs.
