The 20- 20 world cup is around the corner...

So is this fast version of the game all set to replace the classic form of the game?

Will this do more good or harm to the game?

Is it an attempt to compete with soccer in terms of popularity?

Will it divide the world of cricket into the Can hit and Cant hit classes?

I am not in favour of 20-20 cricket.. some how dont seem appealing to watch it.. test cricket or one day any day though....

Naturally teams required for 20-20 will be different than even the one day teams.. and there will be players, who might just play in 20-20 cricket and not in test or one day cricket... they will be label as 20-20 cricket and not 100% cricketer... how good can that be for a cricketer and its growth... for that matter one country where allround cricket is not the focus but a certain part of cricket... ultimate test of a cricketer is known to be in test match... and nowadays with results in most matches those are interesting to watch... ๐Ÿ˜Š

I actually like to watch the 20-20. The thrill is like roller coaster. Watching the bowlers get murdered is a little painful but it is exhilarating..
Will it replace the 1 dayer and eventually test cricket. Unlikely but possible.

Yup...Finesse wil lbe replaced with muscle power and brutality. Aussies will be natural favorites because of their built and firepower. I do not foresee India winning more than a game (possibly against one of the South Asian Nations). Their likelihood of winning against the muscle power of Aussies, SA or England is anywhere between 0 and 0. ๐Ÿ˜›

I watch cricket - test, one dayer, 20-20 doesn't matter. I don't think it will eventually replace one-dayers just as one-dayers haven't replaced test matches (as was predicted in the Kerry Packer days). What we will have is more cricket, more hyped cricketers and even more pathetic performances by the Indian team ๐Ÿ˜›

lolss so true ๐Ÿ˜†. 20 - 20 me toh pop corn bhi khatam nahi hoggey... but surely will be fun for players to come to bat and go back quickly, anyways won't make difference to Indian team, they anyways utilize only 20 overs in 50 overs game๐Ÿ˜›
