the old route of longer matches to start with & then moving on to 1-day matches should be restarted. all teams which took this route have done well in cricket & r established test-playing nations now. 20/20 is not going to do anything for cricket other than kill batting abilities of players in the non-test teams. already most of them cant even survive full 50 overs in matches even against other non-test teams and with 20/20, they will struggle to bat even 30 overs. if the longer-version route is taken & implemented for all non-test teams, they will eventually do well in even odis.

also, instead of icc focussing on countries like usa & canada, more focus should be on countries which already have a cricketing culture like ireland, scotland, nepal, uganda
