    ICC Likely To Delay Two-tier Test Proposal; WTC To Continue In Single-league Format, Claims Report

    By IANS News April 12, 2025 • 18:10 PM View: 572
    The International Cricket Council: The International Cricket Council (ICC) is set to delay its plans to introduce a divisive two-tier structure in Test cricket, with the upcoming cycle of the World Test Championship (WTC), starting this summer, expected to continue with its existing nine-team single-league format, says a report.

    The proposed overhaul, led by Cricket Australia and backed in part by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB), will not be put to a vote during a series of ICC meetings in Zimbabwe this weekend.

    According to The Guardian, the ICC has concluded that more time is needed to evaluate the sporting and financial implications of the drastic restructuring, one of the most significant changes ever proposed in the 133-year history of Test cricket.
