I cannot believe that Najibullah finds a place in the batting lineup and Usman Ghani doesn't, btw.

Surely he's in next game.

The associates have given us the best games in the tournament. **** you ICC. I will never understand cricket administrators who are not thrilled at the idea of developing more competitive cricketing nations. If this Afghan team continues to develop like this, within 10 years we will have a country where cricket occupies a place in the society similar to what it does in India and Pakistan. How can this be a bad thing?

The ICC are not the administrators who want to grow the game. They don't have any authority. The voice of the ICC is just the voice of the member nations, and they don't want to share.

I disagree about Scotland and the Netherlands, but yeah, it would be great to see what the others are capable of.

Well then you'd be wrong. The cricket club local to me is the oldest sporting club of any kind in ScotScoand (dates back to 1845) and the first ever soccer international was held at the West of Scotland Cricket Club.

IIRC Scotland actually has a higher per capita participation rate than England, so to say there's no cricketing culture here is flat out wrong.
