Is T20 Cricket killing Real Cricketing Skills?

Currently, we all like the T20 format of cricket because now all our citizens don't have the patience to watch long term cricket. So, T20 is trending as compared to other formats. So, it doesn't mean like that. It isn't killing Real cricketing skills. It improves the skills of players in the limited formats. It gives chance to the players to prove them in the short format. It isn't like against the cricketing skills.

T20 becomes popular and it attracts people towards itself but there are some cons also. Like popularity of test matches is almost going. But other hand it becomes popular as in 21th century people have no time like 8 hours or 5 days to spend. So quickly they can give it.

Today game like IPL becoming more popular through which many players emerged and India got talent. Playing style of cricketers also improved as there are so many matches and a player prepare himself for every match so ultimately T20 is not bad for cricket.

T20 cricket is exciting, there is also required special skills for scoring runs and taking a wicket or for being economical as a bowler. But it is the reality that some cricketing skills being killed by t20 on some extent. But not all. The skills like temperament, timing the ball also needed in t20. So, in my opinion, t20 not killed real cricketing skills, it just modifies those as per modern era.

In my point of view, t20 cricket is a great revalution in cricket but there some negative aspect of t20 cricket like player loss their temprament and test cricket is all about temprent game.

This let player to perform under very pressure situation of the game. So they can improve mentally as well as technically. But on the other side it's testing the patience of the players when they play test cricket. Nowadays very few test matches ended as draw compare to when t20 cricket was not in introduced.

All formats of cricket have its on beauty. Can a person without talent become star in T20?

Absolutely No.

There is a large number of fans loving T20. One of the reason for football most popular because its short duration and full time entertainment. So love all formats of cricket along with T20.

This is the one of the best format of the cricket. So I don't think so its killing any talent rather I should say this is giving more chance to young generation.

In my opinion, T20 is not killing cricket because players are getting platform, money and grooming chance with senior players. It is also increasing the popularity of the game. IN India IPL has become the festival of cricket, this is helping the younger player to achieve their goal.

Hello everybody.

According to me, yes, T20 cricket is killing some sort of skills in a certain way.

For example; test cricket is the real test of a cricket player. In the t20 cricket format, the player's mindset is he has to hit more boundaries and more runs, so he uses his physical strength more. He has to swing the bat with force like on every 2-3 balls. If it connects well then he gets runs but if not then he may out.

But in test cricket, a player is checked by his temperament. He has to bat in uneven conditions. He needs to learn when he has to show aggression and when he has to calm himself. Test cricket also teaches life lessons like one should have to try and try to get successful (from a bowler's point of view, to get wicket he has to hit lengths and the right areas regularly). Same from other end one should have to defend and stay calm in certain situations.

But in today's generation, people have not enough time. Today's generation does have not much time to watch 2-3 hours of videos or movies so they tend more towards reels and short videos. In the same sense, people have no time to watch 5 day long test match so they are more attracted to t20 cricket. Test Match is like that very good movie and t20 is like short videos and reels that sometimes do not make sense but entertaining.

Have a good day.

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.
