How come the ICC dont allow teams like Ireland, Scotland, Kenya play tests. I understand that they would have big losses against Australia but why caant they have test matches between the less cricketing developed nations. I'd quite enjoy a Scotland V Ireland test series it would be bound to get a few pulses racing. Furthermore why do the ICC give millions of pounds to fund cricket in countries such as England. Australia who already have a powerful cricketing ecoonomy but hardly fund less important cricketing nations. Could this be because there is more money to be made in the Australian side than there is in the Kenyan side. I feel that the first step to developing cricket in the smaller interational teams is to fund them and allow them to play test cricket. And if there was more cricket between smaller nations on the television it would be bound to inspire young Irish/Scotish/American children. Once these teams have developed we could start on bringing nations who dont even play cricket into the game.
