Ian Chappell argued in favour of the need for a "two-tier Test system" and the changing dynamics of Test cricket worldwide.

The article discusses the International Cricket Council's (ICC) concerns regarding India's dominant influence in cricket, particularly highlighted during the T20 World Cup. The ICC has criticized the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) for its significant control over the sport, which includes decisions on scheduling, revenue distribution, and even the choice of event management companies. The ICC's frustration was evident when they had to engage with an event management company chosen by the BCCI, which led to logistical and operational issues during the tournament. This situation has sparked a debate on the balance of power within cricket's governing body, with the ICC's ability to manage the sport independently being questioned. The article also touches on the broader implications of India's cricketing power, suggesting that while India's financial contribution to cricket is undeniable, its overwhelming influence might be detrimental to the sport's global governance and fairness.
