They should be using this up coming tournament to promote the lesser countries. It is disappointting when you consider that such countries have always been representted since world cups startted in 1975.

Scarily I sometimes wonder whether the WAFC are actually modelling their management style on the ICC. :unsure:
Although my favourite form of cricket is Test Cricket I reckon the 20/20 format is our best chance of winning over the massive USA, China markets with its streamlined instant result style.

BH: Canada's claim to fame is that they played the first 'cricket international' against the yanks in 1844. They are ranked 22 in the world at the moment, as you say, a long way below their hey day signified by their appearances in world cups.

they are behind:

UAE
Scotland
PNG
Hong Kong
Kenya
Netherlands
Namibia
Nepal

Wow I did not know that AR.
What a pity Canada & USA did not continue along the cricket lines rather than baseball.

GTR & AR as a kid of the late 70s & 80s it is almost incomprehensible to think the West Indies would not be the Top let alone not in the Top 8 cricket nations in the world. :ohmy:
