Afgan has a few hundred TV watchers maybe. No one watches cricket in IRE, ZIM. Thats it.
You want to be at the top, get the top class name brand STAR players. period.

Then we should not cry out loud over Bangladeshi players for not being picked in IPL, right ? As far i am concerned, i don't care about stardom of a player as long as he performs in the field. Moreover, unlike the snobby IPL, BPL does encourage star players from associate countries.
