let's just agree to disagree on the secondary sides.

again I think you are reaching here. What do you mean by not being relegated? about the match fixing issue? all players who were found guilty were banned...for like 10 years! in other words banned for good in this line of sport. and it's not like only South Asian countries have such scandals right? For example the Warne scandal? He only got banned for 'one' year. and pleaaaaaase don't tell me the excuse he gave saying his mum gave him a pill to handle his weight . Guess who was in charge of the ICC at the time of this happened.

so just saying, the HQ is in a place far away from the main cricket boards and the leadership rotates. Only India in the southern asia has some major pull in Cricket incidents cuz basically they have them money to back them up. But overall, no South Asian bias in their actions, at least not more so than when they handle issues of other countries.

No say, Australia's ex prime minister go rejected from heading up the ICC because of Southern Asian nations rejecting with England, NZ, SA all agreeing. Btw Cricket is big business in India they have the big pull. Just remember who bought the southern asian nations there beloved sport, England. They should keep there say but all get an say on the ICC. That is the Big players get an say. 

anyways nice to see an Sri Lankan gamer. How Sri Lankan leader. Mr Dilmah.

i kid i kid 

sure, South asian nations make up some of the biggest cricket boards in the world so obviously. Not sure what that proves really, just because they didn't find a candidate to be suitable for a job, not like Aussys have any lack of representation in the ICC or anything. So three countries agreed and the 3/4 countries disagreed, and you think this is unfair because somehow the english and aussy should have a bigger say on the matter? Pleaseeeeee

I don't care who brought what to whome. What next, who brought number system the western nations, who brought europeons to aussy, ....they should also have a 'bigger' say cuz of it? what rubbish. I really don't want to get into the colonialism and history and all that in this thread about Cricket but no south asian is grateful to the Brits for what they did to the region.

and the Dilmah joke is about the the tea manufacturer who sponsor/ed? the lankan team? I do not understand the 'joke' there....are the sponsors of other countries their leaders too? How is travalex doing?
