T20 cricket helps in improvement of young talent in a rapid manner. So it teaches players to adopt to situation as fast as he/she can. Yes some of the skills are missing in T20 as its the shorter version Like patience and playing defensive, playing long innings. But its simple you can not get every vitamin and protein in a single dish. To get all you have to eat different dish. So what I think T20 is not killing any skill its just helping in learning some fascinating skills.

This question itself is not correct. Because the one who watches the game of cricket will surely know that it's not killing the real cricketing skills. While analayzing the question, we should interpret the term REAL. What actually is REAL cricketing skills. Are there are some skills which is considered as real and some other is unreal. There is no such differentiation. Every skill is real in its purest form. T20 s has contributed a large extend for the invention of new skills like dilscope, switch hit. These are unconventional way of scoring runs but they can be considered as a skill. When batsman tries to score runs they take different Methods which not only makes the crowd entertained but also makes the batsman to do something out of the he box. In earlier days test cricket is considered as the most difficult form of cricket. But now it's T20. The one who can adapt to the situations rapidly can survive. So as a conclusion note T20 are not killing the real cricketing skills it actually invokes the real talent in the players.

T20 cricket is one of the best formats for player improving the skills quickly and takes a decision shortly. T20 cricket is not killing the real cricket skills and also improving the batting skills. This format is player shorts full 360 degrees. Most of the thing improving skills with the t20 format is better than ODI and test format. The test format is improving stamina of batsman and fitness. ODI format is a little bit better than test, in ODI format improving batting and more for bowling skills. Finally, I say t20 is not killing the cricket and know the strength of batsman and new batting styles are improved.

Hi all.

We even don't think that t20 cricket is dominating now everywhere because Test cricket and limit over Cricket have their respect as well. In Test cricket format you have to deliver your patience, skills, able to score big. Test Cricket is not only defined you but it teaching you about your patience, skills, etc.

Yes, Nowadays we are very much addict to the T20 format game or mostly called the 360-degree game, But it doesn't decrease that 2 level and enhance the skills and how to score. It not good for bowlers and they have to be the best in all formats and here you have to be perfect under any circumstances.

NO, Through T20 cricket many youngsters start dreaming to play for national team. As IPL is a big platform to be creative. Players like RAVICHANDRAN ASWIN, SURESH RAINA are one of the best examples.

GREETINGS!

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.

This format is meant for a twist in cricket. Many international series contain 1, 2 or 3 T20 matches along with test series and/or ODI series. They are like an opportunity, for e. G, in the India-Australia series.

India couldn't pursue the ODI's. But Then they made a clean sweep against Australia in the T20s, which broke a 140-year-old record, that no team has clean sweeped Australia, against Australia, in Australia. So India ended up at no. 1 in T20's.

Moreover, because its a shorter format of cricket, people can go and watch the matches live at the stadium, while one can't watch a whole test match for 4 days continuous!

Last but not the least, T20 internationals and Domestic T20's like IPL, BBL etc. Have brought great attraction among youngsters and kids, while many adults and older people think that it's destroying Test Cricket, which is absolutely wrong!

So, I think that T20's and T20 are one of the best formats of the sport.

See what happens when weed-dopers become CEO's and big corporation decision makers! They try to legalize weed. Is that how you want weed to become? weed is 'ganja' and yes, its become legal in some states in US and its coming for India too. (That is a different story).

Finest tea of Darjeeling, Finest oranges of Nagpur, these never go into Indian mouths. They just get shipped abroad for the rich people. Why ? because you fed it to the businessmen. And then those men did what they do best with things, make money off them. Even if it means killing a few important morals and bare minimum patriotism. I mean, I'm not saying don't make money. I'm saying don't cross the line of decency to do it. Majority of 'the best quality' throughput should be for the growers and those who embrace that soil. Majorly exporting everything good isn't nice. And so don't let history repeat itself. Don't legalize weed. They are doing it so they can ruit it.

They did it to cricket in front of you by bathing you with 20-20 cricket. Its being sold to you and are getting sold and you don't even know it. And then its too late. This is currently the transition period. We have to decide if it stays or it goes. After this generation, there is no looking back anymore forever.

Yes! because it is stealing the original quality and property of a real cricketer. And also the west of time. For it, we waste our time and money also!but it is a very very bad side of a cricket.
