What is two tier test system ?

The new system would see two clear-cut divisions.
  • Division 1 comprising of the 7 top ranked teams
  • Division 2 comprising of mostly 5 nations that would include teams ranked 8, 9 & 10 currently in the world and 2 more nations that would be announced later.
  • Ireland & Afghanistan will be the next two teams as they have good potentials.
We don't know why India/BCCI oppose this system. We can understand that Bangladesh and Zimbabwe can oppose this system because they loss the chance of playing against big teams. Even we can understand Sri Lanka opposed this system cause they have few young players in the team and they are build up new team and because of this their rank was below so there is chance that they may came to second division. But Why BCCI opposed two-tire system that was the mystery. That was may be because of the BCCI's current Issue related t Budget of Champions Trophy 2017.
