rkt.india Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 T20s have turned one day cricket long and boring for most of the people. Switchblade, speedheat, beetle and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment
Mariyam Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 The best part about this WC has been the Pakistani melt down on social media after they lost to us. A lot more fun than the actual rain infested tournament. speedheat, beetle, AuxiliA and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment

I am hopeful both teams will beat Pakistan and push Pakistan to the bottom of the table. mishra 1 Link to comment
chewy Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 After excitement of IPL, this world cup has been a downer. BCCI really need think about expanding IPL Rain, absolute flat pitches (means less likelihood of upsets), prolonged and boring group stage, shoddy umpiring speedheat and beetle 1 1 Link to comment
speedheat Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 After a successful IPL most are still in t20 mood. Link to comment
nikred Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Unlike IPL, in WC, there is no real stakes for the top 2 positions amongst the top 4 contenders either. Sent from my Redmi Note 4 using Tapatalk Link to comment
DHONI_FANN Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Gulf in talent between top4 and the rest is the only reason. Rain or no rain, India, Eng, Aus and NZ were always certain to qualify Link to comment

Quote Giles Clarke, the ECB president, is known to be a strong supporter of the move; a senior ICC source recently described him as "hell bent" on a 10-team World Cup. The ECB chose not to explain its stance. http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci-icc/content/story/892955.html The ECB, CA have back stabbed the associates on more occasions than one, yet it's always the BCCI which gets the blame. I don't even pay heed to Oz supporters, especially who bring this farcical I(ndian)CC term to any debate, they're ignorant just like their cousins across the Atlantic Ocean!

Ranvir Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Perhaps it's time to get rid of 50 over cricket. It just gives credence to cricket being a boring sport. Link to comment

We were screwed by Sup6 in 1999 & NZ in 2003 Which exactly made the format works.. There wont be any easy games even against minnows as you would never know who would qualify. India thought losing to Zim wont matter much as long as they beat Eng and SL.Nz wouldnt have dreamt Kenya would qualify. But the downside of the format is teams might try to do what Aus did in the wi match in 99 Link to comment
