Can people stop throwing the 20-20 thing out there please. As much as Australia did try and win it and didn't, we hardly cared much about it, played basically no lead up games, have no history playing it at all.
Australia and every cricket nation puts test cricket as the top prioity, 1 dayers next, and 20-20 is a bit of fun for the players and spectators alike.
But it not's very important to the players, any players. They would take the test and 1 day titles any day of the week, and I know the people throwing out the 20-20 thing all the time, would take either of those over the 20-20 title as well.
India won the 20-20, good on you, you deserved it. But please respond to the topic at hand, which isn't 20-20 hit and giggle.

I think you make a good point, Calvin. 20-20 is a hit and giggle. Folks should not deviate from the actual issues being discussed. Its ok to have sledging, bad decisions, integrity questions raised, racism charges, abuses such as ba...d, not walking when ur out, claiming catches when they are grassed.. All this is just part of cricket... "test cricket".. yes that's what aussies really care for. Lets all of us stick to that and respond and discuss that issue rather than the 20-20 giggle. Im just wondering if you'd be as vociferous in calling 20-20 a giggle if aussies had won it? Its just taken off sometime from now now if it becomes as popular or ahead of 1 days.. wd u still say that ? ..I dont think anyone can answer that in positive as of date. If you do then I smell sour grapes.
