care to enlighten?- dont get me wrong, i have no allegiance towards the SL cricket board, my love is for the country and its cricket..imho, the only difference between SLC board and Dick Turpin , is that the latter wore a mask..
Haha, if you think this will keep them from throwing a hissy fit and threatening all sorts of things if they don't get their way, you're sorely mistaken.
They will still be politicking, but it will be much harder against the ECB and CA because they can get along without India. In the past India could count on numerous associations to roll over and vote their way. It rendered common sense academic. I don't really care that the BCCI gets more money as long as cricket gets better decisions coming from the ICC. This gives it a better chance of happening.
No they can't. Even in the new structure, BCCI will hold massive influence over all cricket decisions due to their financial clout. They still bring in the most amount of money and even the ECB and CA will want to tour/host India. If CA and ECB could do without the BCCI, we wouldn't be in this position to begin with. The sad fact is, no matter what the setup, world cricket is dependent on India for survivial.
How?
No they hold massive influence over the Asian bloc and corrupt boards elsewhere dependent on their money. They still hold that influence but those associations wouldn't have a vote. The ECB and CA will want to host/tour most countries too. They have financial independence. They're not reliant on India's money to survive. That makes a massive difference which you don't seem to accept.
Haha, have fun with that. I suspect some surprises are in order. I can survive without my legs too, that doesn't mean I'd want to. India won't lose any influence whatsoever. And they know how exactly to throw a hissy fit to get their way. It won't even matter if ECB and CA get veto power over the bcci.
Without India’s money, the sport (at least Test cricket in its current format) will slowly die. You can talk all you want about ECB and CA being financially secure enough to survive without India, but all of their actions in the recent past state otherwise . If India breaks away from the official ICC, they can employ a lot of tactics to destroy the ICC. From starting up their own rebel organization (which will surely be joined by most of the other boards not named ECB/CA/CSA), to offering insane amount of money to players to play in the IPL instead of for their country etc. The fact is, India holds all the cards. I’ve now come to accept that fact and realize that this proposal will go through and BCCI will be the de-facto decision maker of all things Cricket going forward.
Even if cricket has to survive without India which is entirely possible, the administrators in other boards and players will still have to settle for lesser pay packets. There wouldnt be any money to skim off for the smaller boards and they will have to run a tight ship. e.g. SLC would no longer be able to sell TV rights to the channel owned by the president's son for a pittance.

In fact, other teams are also just a needless complication
Nope.
