Is T20 Cricket killing Real Cricketing Skills?

I think T20 T20 cricket is good for entertainment but it will not test the caliber of a player. For example : if player good in T20 T20 will not be good in test cricket. Except a few like (KP, Gayle, Sehwag, Koli, Shane Watson, Kallis, Jayawardene, Ross Taylor). So I think test cricket is real cricket which tests physical as well as mental aspect.

But T20 T20 can be used as development of cricket which can be played in non playing nations like (USA, Ireland, China, Russia, Argentina, Arab Country, Canada, Brazil) in these countries you can hold a world cup instead of hosting in cricket playing nation. i.e. good for expanding cricket and new country can also come for playing cricket. Test cricket always have a value and now one day cricket should be scrapped. Let there be test and T20 only. This my view.

T20 cricket doesn't kill the skill of cricket but it is less time game so everyone have less time to perform. Bowler and batsman have same opportunity to show his talent. In this game time limit is more complex problem so every single wrong decisions will be lost the match. Skill are never ended in this sort of game but time will be less to perform.

I think that the T20 cricket is good than test and ODI because it does not take more time. T20 format is good for youngster. In this format batsman has to be in a good form so he can fight well.

T20 create the real platform to show their talent to spectators. Now a days most of the people are like to watch T20. So players have a chance to show him to the the much number of a people also in T20 player should.

I think T-20 provides a good platform to new comers to arise. It gives good chance to players to play with experienced senior players and to learn a lot of things as well as at the same time to earn fame and money which is a good thing. Balance between T-20 and test match is required as test matches judges the physical strength while T-20 judges mental skills of players.

Hi friends, according to me T20 is just like hitting and getting the runs. In T-20, cricketer not using their skill. They just know how to hold the bat and how to hit and they don't have patience to build the partnership.

Just obtaining run is the main intention. Nowadays because of IPL the real cricket fans are losing their interest on cricket. So my opinion is test is original form of cricket, from this I can say that T-20 is killing real cricketing skills.

To an certain extent T20 is having a great impact on test cricket. 5 years back you cannot see every test match finishing in 3 days or 4 days. Nowadays people like only entertainment. Players nowadays looks to score runs of every ball in test cricket. Yes you cannot stop players like Sehwags, Warners, Gilchrists, Gayles as they are playing their natural game. In olden days test cricket is all about technique and perseverance. But nowadays India is considering Rohit over Pujara. On technique based Pujara is far better than Rohit.

Yes I agree Rohit can be destructive once he is set. But on a long term basis pujara should be considered over rohit. ICC is taking steps to make test cricket more interesting by conducting day-night matches but it is sad that we are not going to see the elegance and patience of Dravid, Laras, Kallis who can save a test match on their own. Because saving a test match is sometimes a greater achievement than winning a match.

Hi every one.

Cricket is enjoyable when both batsmen and bowlers dominate equally in every match. But sad thing is due to invention of T20 cricket, bowlers have been hurt by batsmen a lot. And T20 leads to different ugly looking shots as every batsmen tries to score maximum runs. But T20 is encouraging youth a lot. And audience also enjoys it because since it is a short format. But to me test and ODI formats are best.

Thank you.

I think T-20 is promoting the cricket and so many youngsters got the chance to play in national level with senior players and also able to improve their skills. In return they get huge amount of money also which is a good thing. Because of T-20 Indian economy is also increasing day by day. India has become the hub for cricket because of IPL and T-20 matches due to which India is gaining its popularity day by day and so many businessman and officials wants to spend more.
