What the ICC are doing, will it help or hinder Bd cricket?

[islam]

1. The new rules added onto ODI cricket
-A substitute can be subed on at any stage of the game, where the subbed off player will play no further part in the game.
-10 overs feilding restrictions then another 5 lots of 5 overs to be picked by the bowling captians (so rise from 15->20)

2. Takeing kenyas ODI status away and making the top six non test teams (inc. kenya) to be allowed to play games against test playing nations.

I think the ICC is trying to get ZIm and Bd to play more tournements against countries like namibia and holand insteed of india and pakistan. The ICC also seems to have washed it's hand's of kenya-are we next? or zim?

the only problem i find in this "sustitute" thing is....it will bring down the importance of quality allrounders.at present there r only three of them(flintoff,cairns and razzaq).and the days of bits and pieces allrounders will come to an end.so khaled mahmud ...pensions on the way.
