according to a mate of mine in SA the ticket pricing for this is absolutely fantastic - the most expensive tickets come in at under £9 for double headers whilst some diddy games are less than £2.50.

Bah why did i pick Rhodes for our holiday destination this year, im sure i could have convinced her that SA is a lovely place to visit this time of year and broken the news of the 20/20 WC after we arrived.....

it couldn't be any worse really. although the ICC have refused to learn - that schedule looks ridiculously and unnecessarily bloated. and like i said in the world cup thread, they really missed a trick by not just having this as a 32 team tourney identical to football's world cup in it's execution.

T-20 is a clean slate for everyone, should get as many of the associates in now, rather than trying to have them playing (even more) catch up in ten years time.

32 teams?! Is cricket even played in 32 countries?! You've got the "Big 8" in Aus/Eng/SA/SL/Ind/Pak/NZ/WI and maybe say Bangladesh but the other teams would shirley be a waste of time? The groups would be farcical, one of the "Big 8", one of Bang/Zim/Kenya/Scotland/Ireland/Canada/USA/Bermuda and youve still got to find two more teams for each group ffs

I'm waiting with bated breath for the Burkina Faso vs Bulgaria match.....
