ICC suspends Zimbabwe Cricket with immediate effectFollowing a board and full council meeting in London, ICC has suspended Zimbabwe Cricket with immediate effect. In an official release, the apex body stated that 'the ICC Board unanimously decided that Zimbabwe Cricket, an ICC Full Member, is in breach of Article 2.4 (c) and (d) of the ICC Constitution which imposes an obligation on Members to provide a process for free and democratic elections and to ensure that there is no government interference in its governance and/or administration for cricket respectively."
"We do not take the decision to suspend a Member lightly, but we must keep our sport free from political interference. What has happened in Zimbabwe is a serious breach of the ICC Constitution and we cannot allow it to continue unchecked," ICC chairman Shashank Manohar said.
The ICC also confirmed that all ICC funding to ZC will be frozen and representative teams from Zimbabwe will not participate in any ICC events. Suspension puts doubt over Zimbabwe tour of India next yearhttps://www.cricketcountry.com/news/zimbabwe-cricket-suspended-suspension-puts-doubt-over-zimbabwe-tour-of-india-next-year-870569https://twitter.com/SRazaB24/status/1151927173827239936

Although I feel bad about the Zimbabwe cricketers, I support the decision by the ICC. Zimbabwe no longer deserves the test status and $50 million per year funding by the ICC (Afghanistan and Ireland receives only a fraction of that amount). The basic problem with Zimbabwe is not politics. The real problem is the lack of interest in cricket from the native black population. The white population has gone down from 250,000 to 30,000 in two decades and they can no longer rely on this rapidly shrinking pool for player selection. It's sad, but Zimbabwe is going the same route as Kenya. Rather than wasting the funds on Zimbabwe, the ICC should use it in countries where cricket is popular (Nepal, Papua New Guinea.etc).

After a pretty good performance in World Cup Bangladesh will play a 3 match ODI series against Sri Lanka, starting from 26th July. The world cup match between these two teams was dismissed due to rain. I support Bangladesh is favourite on this series.

Considering their bowling unit I would rather say it's an average performance in the World Cup. Bangladesh has some advantage like some experience players. They have not won a series against SL, will they win this time? Don't expect a lot from them, but still hope for the best. Good luck both of the teams.

As a player yes, he did play well. As a team, they didn't deserve the cup neither did the kiwis. I wish Austalia or India could have won as these are the strongest teams out there. Nz clearly didn't belong there, they played the worst game for a cricket team playing in the finals.
The World Cup should have being shared for the competitive match they displayed in the finals and giving the world cup simply because one team scored more boundaries is ludicrous and they should have taken the wickets lost during the 50 overs rather than the boundaries scored. Australia lost the match by a big margin against England and India lost the match because of the weather conditions as the pitch was seaming a lot after the rain and still India fought hard till the end. I have a different opinion regarding the match as it was the most thrilling final i have ever seen in my cricketing experience as there was no real winner even after the super over.

England are the winners for the 2019 WC and that's what will be written in the record books. You come here after 20 years and everyone will be saying that 2019 WC was won by England and it will be a history. No one will remember what happened and how England got lucky. That's a fact.

Why 20 years LOL Ask anyone who won this years cricket world cup? Everyone will say England :-D We needed to see a new world cup winner and this time we got it. Yes, the luck favored England but they also played solid cricket to win the cup (notice I did not say the match). It was totally a bad day for New Zealand in the final despite playing good cricket. If you analyze some of the moments then you will see it was completely luck that made England the world champion. 1. The catch that was stepped in on the boundary rope. (Saved Stokes or match was gone there for England) 2. That extra 4 runs by hitting the bat (Stokes bat) 3. Awarding 6 runs for this (number two) instead of 5 runs. 4. No Kiwi player, no one else complained for it at that moment because no one was aware of this rule Sometimes I wonder about the luck that was it for England or for Stokes? I imagine him some day to get the Knight award from the queen.

It is all about the performance of the players to win a match as well as India concerned so I don’t think that they have played well. They should work on their team because world cup is not a small thing. England played well so they won, there are so many teams who did effort and all of them were having 50 overs but only best team use to win.

This is an amazing and very mature statement by Eoin Morgan; I'm glad that he gave such a statement. England might be the on-paper winner of the world cup 2019, but people won't forget this final for a long long time and literally, both the captains, Williamson and Morgan, will be remembered as the "winners" of the world cup. P.S. Eoin Morgan is the third "Irish" man to captain the English team. It's amazing that Ireland produces such great captains. However, it seems like it will no longer be easy for England cricket board to capture good Irish cricketers from now on: Ireland determined to keep hold of next Eoin Morgan with new 'world class' structurehttps://www.telegraph.co.uk/cricket/2019/07/20/ireland-determined-keep-hold-next-eoin-morgan-new-world-class/

If there was a rematch played between New Zealand and England once again England will grab it, because this time I see them to be more lucky to win the match. The match could've turned to New Zealand if the four wasn't conceded touching the bat on a overthrow. Next, during the super over after the six it was quite easy to achieve the target, but missed. This is completely a lucky day for England.

Can't support your 1st statement, the four wasn't anyhow game turning point. Stokes would it from bat as well if it was not from overthrow. The 2nd statement is true, NZ must have won the match, after the first six in the super over, it was easy to chase. But, their bad luck.

Let's just have a re-match between England and New Zealand. This option does not exists anymore. Both the team actually played so well and that was the reason that match and super over got tied. Only thing is that world cup cannot be shared due to which they had to declare one winner. Else it was both team's cup if performance is considered on overall basis.

Let's just have a re-match between England and New Zealand. That would be awesome, but that will obviously never happen. The only thing we can all hope for is that something like this never happens again in any kind of tournament. Can't support your 1st statement, the four wasn't anyhow game turning point. Stokes would it from bat as well if it was not from overthrow.
I disagree. That 4 was obviously the game turning point here. Even if Stokes would be on strike, they would still need 7 runs from 2 balls which is very, very tough even for a batsman like Stokes. Luck helped him here.

There's a T20 series coming up between India and WI and I just checked the players list and noticed Gayle is not in the team. He said he would retire from ODIs after the WC but did he retire from T20 also?

It's his own decision that he will not play t20 against India, not a declaration of retired though. He will probably retire from t20 as well, already retired from ODI and List A matches. That's what he said but already retired from ODI. "It's still not the end. I still have a few games to go. May be another series to go, as well. Who knows, we will see what happens. My plans after World Cup? I may play a Test match against India and then I will definitely play the ODIs against India. I won't play the T20s. That's my plan after the World Cup," https://www.indiatoday.in/sports/cricket-world-cup-2019/story/world-cup-2019-chris-gayle-announces-retirement-from-international-cricket-after-india-series-1556572-2019-06-26

We have a separate topic for T20 discussion: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5102095.0 :-) Back to the Gayle thing, I do not know any update available about his retirement but it's very much predictable that he will retire from ODIs if he can not perform well but for T20s - he is still non-replaceable I think and Gayle should carry on to it.
