Really ?
I didn't know that. they speak about Cricket like they have this sport for a century
It was played by British officials in Kabul 180 years ago but, unlike India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, it never was played by the normal Afghan population after the British left.
There's a good documentary about it

Under the Duckworth Lewis rules for rain affected matches Afghanistan need 181 to win in 41 overs
Edited by DragonExpandReading your passionate posts here made me watching a match today between our neighbors Pakistan vs England and after 10 minutes my reaction was "oh no thanks, this is not my taste"
btw since we almost share the same language with Afghanistan, I can read their websites and Cricket is a huge huge sport there and also in Pakistan. (we even had street celebrations in Afghanistan when they beat Pakistan in a test match before the World Cup) but the biggest sport in two of our biggest neighbor countries almost doesn't even exist in my country.
not that I'm complaining
I'm not sure if people realize how amazing the success of Afghanistan has been.
Unlike India and Pakistan, cricket remained almost unknown in Afghanistan until the Soviet Union invaded in 1979.
Afghan refugees began learning the sport in camps in Northern Pakistan.
The national team played their first game in 2001 and now they one of the ten best teams in the world and Rashid Khan has a claim to be the best player in the world
ExpandICC just wants to ensure that all top teams play each other. The so-called minnows have improved a lot in last decade or so. ICC doesn't want a repeat of 2007 WC, where group stages was followed by Super 6 and what was supposed to be Super 6 match between India and Pakistan turned out to be match between Bangladesh and Ireland. India-Pakistan, India-Australia, etc. these are the matches which generate maximum buzz and revenue for ICC. ICC wants to ensure these matches instead of focusing on promoting cricket in newer countries.
I would personally prefer a tournament of 16 teams. 2 groups of 8 teams with top 4 from each group qualifying for QF.
ICC are under pressure from TV companies in the UK, Australia and especially India. That's why we've got a long tournament where many of the matches towards the end of the group stage will be meaningless - but at least the big teams will all play 9 matches.
