Ehsan's poor passing shot
Pti, Dubai
In a startling admission, outgoing International Cricket Council (ICC) president Ehsan Mani has said awarding Test status to Bangladesh was a mistake."The mistake we (the ICC) made in the past -- we should be honest enough to accept and learn from them -- is the way that countries like Zimbabwe and Bangladesh were brought into Test cricket," said Mani who hands over the reins to South African Percy Sonn on July 7. "They became Test-playing nations on the strength of ODI performances and that was wrong. We should've given them more support in terms of playing more of the longer version of the game," he told 'CricInfo' magazine in an interview.
