More International Twenty20 Cricket?
First of all, congrats to the England team for finally getting it right and beating Australia! Shame you couldn’t do it whilst I was out there but never mind! If you ask me it doesn’t mean much though - we still don’t know our best team and we will do nothing at the upcoming World Cup!
I’ve just finished watching SA hammer Pakistan in a pro20 (what they call twenty20) game, and it got me thinking. This style of game is no longer a ‘gimmick’ and it even has its own World Cup later on this year. So why do we only get one game before a long, drawn out 50 over series? If you ask me it would create more interest and enable more people to see exciting cricket, plus shorten stupidly long one-day series. In the UK twenty20 has a decent length spot in the school holidays where people can’t get enough of it… there should be more international stuff. I dunno, maybe there will be in the coming years.

I disagee i think we don’t wanna over do the 20:20 stuff because ten years down the line it’ll be reduced to a 10 over beer match, it is simply not cricket, how would Boycs play the game in todays climate?
