Probably should be 16 at most.
Pretty sure the likes of Netherlands, Canada, Kenya, Nepal, Hong Kong will really slug it out for the other two spots.
But i think ICC's ODI rules needs serious re-think before thinking of adding any more teams. They are trying to make ODI's more entertaining, T20 like. But i think its increasing gap between the weak and strong.
The 4 fielder rule, 2 new ball rule should be both scrapped. Lots of commentators are also talking abt placing restrictions on the size of bats which can be used. Lots of batsmen go out in the middle with clubs, than bats.
