Only when they cut to them so unsure
I dont like the IPL...
I love it!!!
I love all cricket!
I wish I could like it more, but too many poor deliveries. Enough to make it reek of match fixing.
It's shite!
The whole T20 thing is like saying "I don't really like football, but I do like the drama of a penalty shoot out, so let's just do that bit".
The ridiculous spectacle of a bowler getting slogged for two consecutive sixes, then celebrating when the next slog is slightly miscued and caught on the boundary just makes me sad.
The only good thing that ever comes from shortening cricket formats is that the fielding is, generally, improved.
Otherwise, you can stick it I'm afraid.
I'm with Dannyh.
"Lob it and slog it" is just cricket for the Playstation generation. Probably got more in common with baseball than proper cricket.
T20 far more interesting. Specially when you can fit in more than 1 match in a day.
Same would be true for footy. Why waste 90mins playing when it's gonna be 0-0 at the end anyway, with a shoot out. Sometimes it's 1-0. 90 whol minutes of not scoring. The main 90mins is the equivalent of 5day defending almost every single ball without running runs.
Shame that rugby 7's isn't so popular too. Short, sweet, sod defending for 80mins. You wanna win, you gotta attack.
Another +1ish for dannyh
T20 is entertaining, but a great test will beat it any day, IMO.
It's like a comparing TV to film.
