I just noticed something, Australia and England literally do not play against the lesser teams at all.
Infact they have the worse W/L record among the major teams against the minor ones, but still avoid playing them.

Against the major teams Australia infact plays more matches than the other teams.

Development of cricket bas BCCI ki responsibility hai 🤷‍♂️
 
People here ignore the charity of BCCI. They are the one's sustaining international cricket.
The blatant racism in the scheduling is evident. Pakistanis are happy to take digs at BCCI but don't realize that English and the Aussies are even worse for them.

What surprised me is the worst W/L record of the English and Aussies against the minor nations which throws out the argument of competitive play. I honestly expected Pakistan to have the worst W/L record there, but its the old White guard
 
on another note, fans should demand refund for this woeful nz vs Pakistans eries

Pakistan should be forced to pay the compensation to the fans at the stadium for the disgusting performance in display.

Pakistan is quite dumb not to realise that bcci is actually doing them a favour. Sena teams are just taking them for a ride and making them fools.

Bcci has done too many favours. Bcci is corrupt too but they aren’t the worst. Worst would be if Aus or England were in power like in 80s and 90s where they hardly toured Asian teams. Remember how they would refrain from coming due to weather, hotel issue, availability of food, the people they interact with etc.
lol karma.

Actually I would say that Australia and England are even worse than India when it comes to playing with smaller teams.

England have not played any kind of bilateral series with Zimbabwe since 2003. They will be playing a test match with Zimbabwe this year after 20+ years. And that too for political reasons that aren't really even relevant anymore. Robert Mugabe alone has been dead for 6 years now.

Same with Australia and their selective morality when it comes to playing Afghanistan.

Atleast India sends their B teams to Zimbabwe every now and then and has a positive relationship with Afghanistan (even if its for self-serving reasons connected to foreign policy). Australia have played Zimbabwe twice bilaterally in the last two decades I think.

Similar with Bangladesh. I don't think Australia have toured there for an ODI or Test series since 2018. England haven't toured Bangladesh for Tests or ODIs since 2016.

England and Australia are even more complicit than India when it comes to not helping boards like ZC, BCB, ACB, Cricket Ireland.

Because it's generally not charity, it's usually a pretty blatant purchase of an ICC vote to get through something they want (ironically quite often being redirecting a chunk of the smaller nations funding into their pockets).
 
Australia never invited Bangladesh to Australia. They haven't toured Windies in ages. But when you ask their fans they will be acting like AUstralia's slaves just because it is against India.

It absolutely is given the way it worked for decades.

Its about time each country is made to sustain themselves in their local market.

Shocker.

BCCI have done some good things. I remember a post COVID tour of South Africa but to call it charity is over exaggeration. They are not donating money.

The current cricketing set up requires India to play with opposition to make money. Just like in boxing where two fighters get different share of the purse. You cannot call it charity because if the match didn't take place nobody would get anything.

India is dependant on playing against opposition just as other countries are dependant on playing India. The ratios of dependencies will differ of course but they do exist and to continue to make money you have to play against lesser opponents to grow the game.

It may all change when Indian public is satisfied with only playing IPL but for now India is also depending on international cricket and isn't doing anything charitable by playing matches.

The point is the rest of boards have put up with far worse treatment from ECB and CA for a lot less in return.

All this rona dhona about BCCI is inherent racism. nothing more.

You are creating strawman argument. Show where any other board has done rhona dhona about BCCI playing less matches against them?

And no that isn't the point. You can't keep moving goalposts. The point I was making is that India isn't doing charity to anyone.l
 
Would be interesting to see how many times each team has toured Aus and Eng in the last 20-25 years. That will give a clear picture.
 
Can you make the list per format
Tests: England does play a lot of tests, But Australia only 20 tests in 10 years against the minor teams??

1742787721548.png

ODI

1742787747244.png

T20I

1742787770615.png

Well, Australia seems to be skipping any responsibility for cricketing world. With one of the lowest W/L ratio T20I and Tests, its not about lack of competitive play is it?
 
Why do you expect much?

England is on the brink of collapse. In a few decades it will be no different than Bangladesh.

Australia are just smart and practical. They know how to do business and where to speak and where not to speak.

Why should Australia play against minnows? What does that do for them?

Besides if they did you'd guys would complain 24/7 since the likes of steve smith would be avg 80+ and would have 90 something test centuries in all they did was play a million tests against them.

Their was literally so much Rona dhona during the sri lankan test series about the likes of Usman Khawaja, Inglis and Smith abusing sri lanka even though the sri lanka test series were scheduled alongside BGT and any tests held prior to that.

England should play against minnows now due to their current crap standing.

When you look format by format the. Isn't the difference really that India plays more T20 cricket against the smaller sides?

And from LOI in general you can factor in multi tournament cups like Asia cup or the Emerging Asia cup that also has international status.

It is only in t20 where there is major gap.

Now who is creating a strawman?

30 vs 20 tests

73 vs 36 ODI's

I am not @DeadlyVenom , you're argument is with him. I haven't even read what you guys are arguing about nor am I interested.

Anyway to reinterate my point.

If Smith played more tests vs Let's say west indies who he's avg 141 against since in 2 test games, he's owned such rubbish bowling,

You would see stats that would make don Bradman blush and indians would throw the biggest hissy fit of all time.

It's a blessing that smith has spent most of his test career dominanting India and England of whom he avg 58 and 56 against and has 14 centuries in 24 games vs india.

If anything someone like sachin tendulkar padded his stats unlike smith since he played 9 games vs Zimbabwe bullying them left and right and 7 games vs Bangladesh.

We both know if Australia played more against weaker teams especially in test cricket indians would throw a huge ruckus.

Lastly Australia doesn't run icc anymore, they don't care much as cricket is not their national sport, so they don't need to be held accountable for not promoting lower nations and expanding cricket and neither is England.

Bcci should do its job on expanding cricket but instead their destroying odi cricket as we speak. Their too focused on expanding test cricket and t20 cricket but they've done absolutely nothing in terms of expanding cricket and their wrecking odi cricket.
 
Australia is especially pathetic when it comes to this. They barely tour the small teams like Bangladesh.

Will happily cancel tours on flimsy grounds
Why should Australia tour Bangladesh? What does Bangladesh offer them?

Australia as a cricketing nation doesn't care too much about cricket as is. They do care about cricket but only Ashes, BGT, and World cups.

T20 wc and champions trophy while watched don't get as much traction in Australia and even odi series between rival nations like England don't get any traction either.

Almost no one cared or celebrated Australia beating England in ct, nor did anyone watch the aus vs Eng odi series that happened in 2024 slightly before bgt.

They are not India that has Cricket as its no 1 priority in terms of sports.

What does lower nations have anything t9 offer them in terms of revenue, watch times and profitability? If Bangladesh tours Australia the stadiums will be empty? And Australia don't benefit from touring Bangladesh either?

Australia doesn't run cricket nor does it care. They have bigger problems to deal with then supporting lower nations who treat cricket as the pride and passion

Basically , Australian fans/cricketers are arrogant , self serving sods who will complain like hypocrites if BCCI does the same. OK. Got it.

Ignore India, India plays a lot of games by far with everyone.
My question is why is Australia and England well below the average when it comes to playing against the minor recognized teams? and sir the gap is not minor,

In Tests the median is SA 26 tests, Austrlia is literally 25% below median
In ODI, the median is 56 games , Australia with 36 games is 35% below median numbers
In T20Is, the median is 49 games, Australia is is still 17% below median numbers

We generally have the perception, that teams like NZ and SA dont get to play much. NZ and SA are not playing in tournaments like Asia Cup, how come they have more games than Australia and England.
How is that the only two boards apart from BCCI that can make cricket self sustaining playing less cricket against the lesser boards.

SENA white color bias is intense in Australia, BCCI is only entertained because of the huge money.
Here is tests, Now I am changing the clubbing putting Pakistan into the minor group (the non-whites excluding India.)
England and Australia never cared about promoting sports to a wider base. They were elitist in the past and and still are.

In Australia, Ashes, BGT and odi world cups are watched and that's it.

Ashes due to the long rivalry between aus and eng. Uneducated posters like @Devadwal think that aus and England have a rivalry in odi and t20 when they don't. They have one in Ashes only due to a satirical obituary published after Australia's first Test win on English soil in 1882, declaring "English cricket" dead and its "ashes" taken to Australia.

England tried to kill its convicts and Australia butchered them on their own soil and mocked their national sport. Hence the intense rivarly.

What do Odi and t20 have to do with anything?

As for BGT, BGT is popular due to it being the most fun version of test cricket to watch, however India and Australia as nations are more or less friendly to one another. Australia and India see each other as a profitable business hub.

Theirs no actual rivalry beyond it being very fun to watch.

Same case with Odi world cups, theirs no value in it for Australia other then the fact that's it's fun to watch.

Everything else is not fun to watch from an Australian perspective since cricket is not their main sport.

Typical indian response which only highlights that you've never travelled the world or atleast haven't travelled to Australia.

It has nothing to do with hypocrisy. Indians are the reason cricket has more then 1B viewers and is ranked no 2 behind football. That metric is skewed since without india, the no of people watching a sport where only a few countries play and most of those countries don't even have fans that watch it much is extremely less.

India and Pakistan and Bangladesh and other nations treat cricket as their pride and bcci essentially runs icc hence it's their job to keep cricket alive.

If cricket dies, then India suffers revenue loss + it'll have to deal with the damages of finding a new sport that they are good at for their nation.

But Australia it won't affect them too much besides maybe a bit of anger that ashes is over.

^^ This is the ranking of how many people watch cricket in Australia

1.2 million fans in a country worth 26M total population compared to India, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh where it's

India: 600 to 800M viewers for cricket depending on website metrics, In comparison kabbadi, Football and badminton combined viewership in india dont even have half the no of people in India.

the metrics for Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan are similar where you have nearly 60 to 90% of the population watching cricket with the other % watching other spots and let's be real, No one seriously follows them.

Hence Australia just needs to focus on money. They do not need to focus on anything that doesn't make them money in a sport that only 1M out of 26M people watch in their country.

Ashes is for historical value, BGT offers monetary value, Odi world cups, IPL offer money, BBL offers money.

What does aus vs bangladesh offer? India has to support these nations cause if India loses cricket then what do they have? Literally nothing, no sport for their nation. No one gives a damn about badminton, Football etc in india. Just a little bit about kabadi that's all.

Australia on the other hand doesn't lose much if they lose cricket. They don't need to support Bangladesh 🤣

Translation: I can't debunk it so I will now cry and complain.

If cricket dies, Australia can survive of ashes and Big bash league without too much trouble.

but india suffers as they don't have any other sport. No one gives a damn about indian hockey, indian Kabadi, Indian badminton and indian football.

They have to support lower nations and dump money in IPL and support yearly tournaments to generate revenue cause they need to sport. It's a money making machine for them and it's the only sport they have.

Why should Australia support a lower country that brings no revenue to them and cricket isn't even their main interest? Cricket can die off in Australia and no one will care except the 1.2M people out of 26M and even then a majority will happy with only ashes, Odi wc and Big Bash leagues lol

There's nothing to debunk in your rubbish responses . You're basically saying CA will only do something if it's in Australian cricket's interest.

That's exactly what I'm saying? I don't even get your point? Why is Australia obligated to support lower nations, when they are in no threat?

India doesn't want to support either. Bcci isn't a charity for lower nations lol. Their supporting cause they have to. Theirs no Kabadi priemere league, or indian football league or indian hockey league coming to save you. At the end of the day it's all about money.

Cricket is the biggest revenue maker for India sports wise in its country. More support for bangladesh + Afghanistan + USA + Canada + west indies + God knows which other minnow = More talent in leagues, + double to triple times their money.

Besides no one wants to watch yearly tournaments with only 5 teams (India, Aus, eng, nz and Sa) icc events would turn into asia cups lol.

Don't act like India is running a friendly charity and is trying its hardest to support cricket out of the goodness of its heart.

They are 200% money focused as is Australia, however Australia doesn't have to worry much due to their nation not solely relying on cricket for revenue.

Ashes, BGT, IPL, big bash league, Wtc final, odi world cups, t20 world cups make them money and that's good enough since

Odi, t20, ipl and bgt has India paying them, and ashes + big bash league is self funded due to interest.

Bangladesh does nothing for Australia. India supports Bangladesh and Afghanistan because Bangladesh increases ipl revenue. Granted not as much as Australia, England or top nations.

But it increases their money and that's the end goal. They may lose money in some bi laterals series vs Minnows, but they'll gain it back via ipl support.

So conclusion, both countries only care about money and their own interests. Don't act like India is a charity.

It obviously different for the original hardcore Australians like you and I'm sure you'll have no issues if India choose not to share any of its revenues and plays only who and when it suits it

Its those pesky carpet baggers like Gideon Haigh and Tony Grieg who get on the pedestal and preach about BCCI has a responsibility to the game of cricket and are obligate to fund luxurious life style for "professional" cricketers from Ireland and Netherlands.
 
Australia is not even letting south africa to play in iconic/big venues in the august loi tour.they are hosting saffers in remote parts to curb the losses.Aus hosts only india , eng to an extent pak in big venues.

It's not different. I'm a bachelor and masters degree holder in business, ive studied extnesively on Organisational policies lol.

^^ Anyway the reason why I'm telling you this is to explain how organization's work. Ca and BCCI are not social enterprises or Charities.

If India stops supporting Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Usa etc etc will they take a hit? Yes but not much, IPL will still be a money making machine and Indian population alone will be able to carry yearly tournaments even if only 5 teams play.

However no organization will ever deny more money. Supporting lesser nations still increases bcci revenue.

Apple is already worth 5T in valuation and their trying to get to 10T. They have all the money in the world and don't need tonscale any higher however have you ever heard apple say

Oh we make too much money selling iphones, we should take a slight hit and atop supporting the sale of iphone in Kenya, after all we'll still be making 4.8T.

^^ Which crazy organisations does this? Bcci is also an organization. Supporting lesser teams will generate more money in IPL and icc tournaments.

Now why do they take a financial hit during bi laterals? Simple for the same reason Google took a hit buying YouTube, aka future revenue.

YouTube didn't make its first profit until 2009, Google was at a 1.3B loss for 3 years and they didn't recover that until 2012, however now YouTube is the 2nd main source of revenue.

It's the same for bcci, Taking a hit playing bi laterals vs Bangladesh will eventually increase IPL money. Do they need more money? No, but neother does Apple and yet their still cooking more every day.

Even lack of support for Pakistan has monetary incentives. Bcci doesn't want to risk paying more for rebuilding stadiums and paying extra for security, hence while they may he at a financial loss for not supporting Pakistan, they figured that due to the hostile nature of these countries, they may actually take some extra financial debt, at the very least they'll have to pay more for security 100% which isn't worth the hassle.

So why would Australia be generous enough to support Bangladesh or Other nations out of the goodness of its own heart? When bcci themselves aren't doing it?

No organization on this planet excluding charities or social entrepreneurs will do so? Apple isn't gonna support the poor by giving away free iphones lol, and ca ain't gonna support Bangladesh either.

As for the people you mentioned, it's as relevant as me whining about Why My Taylor Swift concerts aren't free and why she doesn't help the poor and needy lol.

They're playing in remote parts because they're the only venues available to them with suitable weather at that time.

Yeah august was picked because sa are not imp to generate revenue.will they ask India or England or pak to tour in aug and allocate venues there?previously bng played at Darwin in 2008 last time and now it's sa.
