Hi friend good evening:-

According to my point of view T20 cricket is best for newcomers. Because now days no have more time to effort or loss his time in front of television or on mobile. T20 cricket declared result earlier and also a lot of entertainment and money is available in large amount. But we compare about T20 cricket to one day cricket there is not enough time to analyse the batsman or bowler in T20 cricket because it can possible one player cannot analyse within a match but one day cricket is one of the cricket is to analyse who is best batsman or bowler (one day player can perform well in T20 but there is no chance of T20 player can perform in one day because there is need of defense and they can be not well defenser. ).

Whatever any reason but T20 is the best because of only one reason is that. It will not takes more time and it is full of entertainment for public.

What I believe is that nothing is permanent when we get back to 300 years or odd into past any form of cricket doesn't exist at all. And when it came into action we all know that people who were playing cricket was mostly those who got much leisure time like British officials, kings etc. So at that point of time may be playing a game for five days would seem to be much entertaining to both players and spectators.

In this 100 years worlds population has been drastically increased and people's need to manage time in this competition is also increased. As all these sports and all emerged from people I feel that sports also need to adopt new methods, I doesn't mean that we must completely neglect old and pure form of original cricket even it need to be existed but also modifications have to be done Time to time and new forms have to be introduced along with old and original cricket.

In my point of view, we cannot say that T20 is killing the skill of cricket, as it is creating a new skill in which every one cannot perform. For example a T20 is a game in which generates a player who can hit 50 runs just in 20 balls which cannot be generate by a test match.

And also generate a player who can perform good in extreme pressure, for example in a test match if a team wants 30 runs in last over it can be done by player who plays T20. Where as in test match it is also a skill to be patient and strength to play 5 days continuously.

So conclusion is that for t20 the selection can be on IPL bases but for test match Ranji based selection should be preferred and if a player can manage to perform good on both the format then it is our honor to have these kind of talented players. B/c at the end of the day we want victory on all the formats of game.

As per my point of view, the T20 is the best platform to promote not only the cricket at the intentional standards but only it gives at least a change to hidden players to shows their capability in the span of time.

It is also bless for those players who are waiting for a long to get at-least a change to play and show their talent at the national as well as international standards. You can ask for them what is the actual meaning of this change.

If we will take a game as for opportunity for all mankind to show some talent, so No game kills real talent of someone else. Which will be adopted as ocean of opportunities.

No game big or small, our mind set make it lots of issues for that. The game required discipline, team spirit etc. If it would be their it will be emerge as the best game ever.

For example:- KABADI. Now days, which is promoting the players.

I believe that T20 is not harming the pure tradition of cricket as we have seen that it actually helps the player train for the test matches. It requires more skills and strategy, more sense of the game and it tests the player to his best and show how much he can handle pressure. On the other hand people need to realize that that all these formats, whether its T20, 50 50 or test, are existing at the same time and the same team and same players play in these formats and they are versatile enough to adapt the these formats.

And also ages before 50 50 replaced Tests and eventually people adapted that format and liked and now T20 is not only a major source of entertainment but also quick and short as people are really busy in their lives. Thus, T20 format has nothing to do with the destruction of 'traditional cricket'.

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.

First of all, thank-you for giving this beautiful platform to put my point on the topic of T20 cricket is killing the real cricket skill.

So, In my opinion, that is not truly right in fact T20 cricket can give better players for the team in a short time like in IPL matches players are selected on the basis of their T20 performance. In T20 cricket.

In cricket, we need some energetic players who can't perform well in the match short period of time. Although audiences are enjoying a lot on their boundaries. The audience can also enjoy in a short time to watch T20 they haven't a seat for a whole day to watch Test cricket matches but mostly people enjoy test matches because they have to see the most skilled players who can play long periods of time and can face all the bowlers easily and played well.

Hello, everyone!

T20 cricket is one of the formats of cricket that provides a platform for numerous young players to showcase their talent.

It is a reality that many cricket leagues are organized by countries, such as the IPL (Indian Premier League) and BBL (Big Bash League).

These leagues not only give opportunities to emerging players but also contribute significantly to the global popularity of the sport. T20 cricket is known for its fast-paced and entertaining nature, making it a favorite among fans worldwide. The success of these leagues has not only strengthened the foundation of T20 cricket but has also played a crucial role in shaping the future of the sport by nurturing young talents and providing them with the exposure they need to excel on the international stage.

Yes, surely IPL have impacted adversely to traditional cricket.

Some actions need to be taken to save our valuable players from excessive playing and in the end drain down their energy in IPL.

First of all, BCCI should impose rules for different categorize players to play IPL matches. BCCI contracts players in different categories like A, B and C. A group players are paid highest whereas C group players are paid lowest. Here BCCI should impose ban on players of A group to play not more than 50% matches, B group should play 65% and C group player can play 80% matches. Means if a particular team is having 14 matches to play, they can not allow A category player to play more than 7 matches. B group player can play not more than 9 matches and C group player can play 11 matches.
