mancalledsting Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 There’s no doubt that t20 cricket is far more popular than test cricket. But that doesn’t mean it is higher quality cricket. McDonalds and Coca Cola are considerably more popular world wide than moongi daal and nimbu paani but the latter two are far higher quality foods. McDonalds and Coke are not proper food so hence some people say t20 is not proper cricket. express bowling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Test cricket fanbase hasn't reduced in India. T20 has added more people to that fanbase. It has added diversity too. Would have take 100 years to convince my elder sister to watch a match if there was no T20. beetle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Straight Drive Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 (edited) It is shocking to see that some batsman has to knock the doors so hard. I mean he has average of 45.45 in T20 , an average which is even good in test match format. accompanying with SR of 147, which again is better SR than some in this Indian T20 team. In that aspect it is really nice to see Rahul stay so much motivated even after him being sidelined. That fighting spirit is awesome. Nice to see him continue his T20 form into this series. Hope he avoids the hit-wicket. That's the one mode of dismissal he has to avoid. Looked really bad to gift wicket like that.
