Ireland are on the up, after the win in the inter-continental cup and what they did in the world cup. I would say Ireland are going to be the new test nation. Although Kenya are the best of the non test teams Ireland are the ones who are improving most of the time. So it is between Ireland and Kenya.

If Tikolo was World Class then it adds a hell of a lot of other players into that category.

There is no way Ireland should be Test Class, not for a long while anyway.

what you mean Ireland shouldn't be test class for a long while? the faster they are the better, 2 times intercontinental champions.

He doesn't think that Ireland are ready to be considered "Test class" and given Test status by the ICC.

Maybe it would be better if test status was 'earned' rather than 'granted'

I assume we're talking men's cricket. Holland ladies are currently playing their first test.
