IPL T20 TOO LONG A TOURNAMENT
by vaibhav kumar on May 01, 2008 02:59 PM

IPL T20 is a very long tournament and may loose some of its intensity mid way though. The format (playing at home and away) is surely very lucrative but due to overseas players changing rapidly the teams are bound to change their chemistry and performance and also the synergy.

I felt that the format was more of a compulsion to provide the franchise to earn money; as players (who will take part in all 14-16 matches) will be immensly tired to have the same intensity within next month or so.

Also viewers may loose their enthu may be by next week or so. Its overdose of cricket. Ofcourse you have a roght to choose not to watch all matches, but for a cricket lover, it is a difficult thing to do.

Probably next ed of IPL T20 will be a right proprotion of FATAFAT cricket. This inaugural edition is surely an OVERDOSE.
