T20 is the future
by AD on Sep 25, 2007 12:48 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

We should stop one day and test match cricket.
It was quite boring and most of the countries the interest in this form of game was lost.

I am definitely sure Test Match Cricket is going to die.

We should use this T20 format of game. Make some changes if required to improve it.
In india we should stop the nonsense Ranji Trophy and start League Championships.
There should be clubs which will sponsor player.
The game should be just like European Soccer League matches. Then we will come out of this BCCI politics and will be only fun.

if u r a TRUE CRICKET lover, u will never wish for the 50 overs and test cricket to get abolished. but u dont seem to be. So u njoy yr 20-20 and let more true cricket lovers njoy all the 3 forms of cricket.
man cricket is all about watching the techniques of great players and even watchin some great bowling. This is not possible in 20-20. I dont blame this format. Lets have all and let everyone njoy whichever format they like to watch.

End of the day which format gives u more fun will count.
When One day format started people said the same thing.

Twenty20 also requires skills. Everybody cant hit sixes like Yuvi.

For me its which game gives me more fun and enjoiment I will watch dat.

With T20 the actual talent of a spostmen cant be shown out. Person who plays well on a particular day will become the hero for that day.Playign like this u can only sustain for few overs and that was what happend in these matches. So start dreaming day dreams. and no rights to comment on the 3 TRIOS

It may be your view.But I dont see the future for Test match. Definitely for me 2020 was more fun than watch a One day match whole day. If you dont have skills you cant play this form of game also . i.e y we Kept useless Agarkar out. We should improve and change the game to make it better. Not necessa. to stick to old ways.

AD, I think you should start watching baseball then, it will give instant gratification. Cricket is not like other sports and if you dont understand the importance of the longer version of the game, then you definitely lack even basic cricketing knowledge and it is not worth discussing this topic with you.
