Canada and USA invited into WI competition
Canada and USA have been invited to take part in the as yet unsponsored West Indies domestic one-day tournament which starts on November 13 in Guyana.
Seek the blessings of Sir Allen Standford or Digicel for sponsership.IT is good to have such a tournment to assist US and Canada team to be better prepared for more competive cricket.
I think this a great idea, because i could only help the game grow.And much needed competion will be provided.For these teams have been on the improve.
We have The Ashes and then we have the Indo-Pak encounters the "Friendship Series". If we can market Canada-USA cricket, which is also the oldest international cricket rivalry. We can have an extra episode in the Cricketing fraternity. A new dimension. Some thing very Fresh and sells. Both the nations are rich and can Fetch a lot of ravenue that can be used for development.
ICC must start a bylateral Series which includes for the moment Three, Four day games (with first class status), five ODI'S and two Twenty/20 games. Series will be held every 2 years.
If we water the plant now it will give us fruit in the future.

Its great idea to popularise cricket in u.s market.. The minow teams will gain sum experience. We have ind-pak eng-aus and now can-us being the oldes rival..
I wholeheartedly agree on your concept amar, though i would be happy with one first class game and 3 odi's to start it off. great news about the w.i. comp, england take note for holland. what happened to bermuda though??
This will give a good exposure to both, USA and Canada.
