but enough about it... silent you smart but on this one you lose i win.... ICC doing a ok job on spreading the game. example-world cricket league, intercontinentals which they dont really make any money out of but provides associates to play to get better(before this team with only test status would get to play really)... but on with it.... it said that there would be minimum of 3 champions trophy...WHY?? thats the suckiest thing the ICC have made along with the super series...does that mean in 2012 there will be a champions trophy? that sucks i thought twenty20 championship would replace it..atleast twnety20 championship is a different thing than the world cup..champions trophy is basically the same thing which takes the shine of the world cup

Glad you think so. I will be proven wrong when ICC's money helps a single country that didn't already have a cricker playing populace, reach Test status.LA ICE-E said:

im telling you its not just about the money its the opportunity and alot fo ther stuff icc been doing...you are wrong...spreading the games doesn't mean just making test nations...its getting countries to play cricket where there is much of cricket being played....keyna/nehterlands already plays ODIs thats a spread because they dont have any colonial relations...and yes you should come back here when china plays in the qualifiers one day ...eventually in the world cup and then tests...silentstriker said:

If China makes it to test cricket, it won't be due to the ICC. China has plans to put cricket in every school and have thousands of coaches. There is not enough money in the ICC to fund all that. That all has to happen internally.LA ICE-E said:

NFL went for $18,000,000,000. Ridiculous, huh?

No, but its still a lot of money to waste.pasag said:

Dunno about that. I like how the money is allocated in the NFL. 60% is player salaries directly, rest goto the teams for coaches, training facilities, stadium upkeep, etc. And that still leaves enough for the owners to make money.pasag said:

I'm sure it does, but this is all terribly over-inflated and as something similar to what BoyBrumby said in another thread it's a cancer rotting at all sports. And the real problem here is that our cricketers may turn into the spoilt brats that we see in American sports, getting hundered million dollar contracts without playing a highest level game etc. When that happens cricket will be dead.silentstriker said:

Dunno about over inflated. I mean, its us customers who decide the value...and frankly I'd rather have the players get the money instead of the owners.pasag said:
I know what you mean about over inflated egos, but using NFL as an example, I don't think there is a more successful league in the world at the moment. Soccer is obviously the most popular, but there is much less internal discord in the NFL. The players make money, every single team turns out profit, the labor union and ownership is peaceful, most teams have good stadiums, and it gets obscene amount of ratings because, in general, the games are competitive with lots of upsets.

There are no 'international' competitions in NFL, so it does not appear there. Each NFL game is attended by an average of 66,000 people, which is the most of any sport in the world. And I don't think its even close really.
