Test Cricket’s Future And T20 WC Expansion Set To Dominate ICC AGM In Singapore
T20 World Cup: Discussions on the future of Test cricket and further expansion of the T20 World Cup are set to dominate the Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the International Cricket Council (ICC), which begins in Singapore on Thursday.
This will also be the first AGM of the ICC under new chairman Jay Shah and CEO Sanjog Gupta. One of the most pressing topics in the AGM will be a discussion on the two-tier system for Test cricket, which has generated mixed views amongst the cricketing community.
Another thing which could be ratified will be the future editions of the World Test Championship (WTC) Final to be hosted in England. Though a decision on ODI World Cup’s expansion may not come, the Men’s T20 World Cup, which has 20 teams in 2024 and for the 2026 edition, could expand to having 24 teams in future editions.
