ICC Cricket World Cup 2019: Poor scheduling, primitive facilities expose global body's indifference to tournament

Firstpost  

It is unimaginable that the ICC planned a World Cup event involving 10 countries without providing for rain and such interruptions which are pretty normal in England at this time of the year. In hindsight, it is unimaginable that the ICC planned a World Cup event involving 10 countries without providing for rain and such interruptions which are pretty normal in England at this time of the year. The last time England hosted the World Cup jointly with Ireland, Scotland, Wales and The Netherlands in 1999, they provided for a reserve day for all matches. The collective chaos which rains, poor scheduling and the lack of reserve days might unleash in the coming days might well damn the current ICC disposition for all time to come.
