As far as this year's CT is concerned, I think it is going to be interesting because it will be a great preparation for the WC, as even the tracks in the Windies seem to be getting slower, just like the subcontinent.
what is the status that everyone wants it to attain though???
We already have a world cup.....if you want the CT to be every 4 yaers and the WC to be every 4 years, why not just have a WC every two years?
IMO have CT every two years by all means, but have a simple 2 group first round and the winners of the two group contest the final. Every team would play at least 3 games, and no more than 4, and it could be over and done with within a couple of weeks. We dont need another month long tournament which,lets face it, is miles behind in prestige to the world cup
