Canada
*England
Netherlands
*India
Ireland
Kenya
*New Zealand
*Pakistan
Scotland
*South Africa
*Sri Lanka
*West Indies
*Zimbabwe

My Choice would be Canada, More than half of their players arnt Canadian Born Players, We should put more emphasis on nations that are developing their own Players, i.e Holland, Kenya, Ireland, Bermuda.

I would Like to see Argentina, they are developing their home grown players.

Answer 1

i would say canada as well...but those players are canadian citizens even though they r not canadian by birth....but others teams have developped their own talent...

Answer 2

I would have to say Beemuda, just because they are not as strong as any of the other nations. netherlands, ireland and canada have all had experience of some sort against the larger countries. Canada has beaten Bangladesh after all!

If you use the argument that Canada are not using Canadian born players, then you cannot let England play either!! You have Pietersen and Strauss born in South Africa, Panesar in India, Mahmood in Pakistan, and Joyce in Ireland!

You want the sides that will provide the most competition. Ideally none of these teams should play, but Bermuda will be the country least likely to compete.

Answer 3

i say Bermuda they don't sound like a cricketing country to me canada is ok because they are showing a new twist with a multicultural approach which is good at this day of age with all the wars and stuff but canada shows the diversity in the country .....plus im from canada hehe! I want pak to win the cup!!! aussies will take it though but not without a fight...

Answer 4

I think it is Bermuda since they could not get any foothold so far in Int'l Cricket.

I do wish that one day they could come close to Kenya, if not West Indies, if proper attention is paid to have players pooled from School level and have some training academy like institution to groom them properly.

PS. About 10 years ago it used to be Bangladesh (to be excluded) in such type of polling. Thanks God that we have somehow managed to escape this ignobility!!

Answer 5

I believe that it should be Ireland. I believe they are not up to scratch with any of the other teams. Did you know that the highest individual score by any Irish player is 99. How sad. And furthermore did you know that their best bowling of any player is: 3/32. Replace them with Namibia who in the World Cup of 2003 would've beaten England if it was not for the darn Duck worth-Lewis method.

Answer 6

o would go for ireland
