well i think so they should be allowed to participate in world cup bcos if ICC is talking abuout globalizing the cricket to each part of world then they have to make cricket popular in parts of world and this can be done only by making them play at such big events.mind you i agree with playing with these countries plying cricket but i think ICC commitee have to think a way to organise a way so that these countriies should get regular international fixtures instead of playing in world cup onlyyyyyy.and tell me wat u people think????????

I think teams like Scotland, Ireland, Kenya should partake in tournaments comprising of State teams of various nations like Australia, India, England, South Africa at various locations annually and among themselves bi-annually to improve their standards

i says including teams like ireland,bermuda kills enjoying cricket. icc is including as a means for globalising cricket. globalising cricket is a now a fashion of icc and icc tries to extend worldcup schedules by making profit.

I'm not even watching the WC2007 right now. Will start to watch it only in the super 8 league. When the top 8 eight team compete with each other in a sort of round robin league. Right now WC2007 is boring with margin of 150+ runs win. YAWN. ICC should get the other teams at par before having them play the WC.

hi friend, the countries ireland,scotland etc are not very big country,but we know that these country play cricket,so if we taking all thas country in this international game dirctly then there so many team are to be created which causes a problm to fixing the matches,so i think these country cannot participate in world cup.
