Cricket News - by Craig Hill

10/10

October 26th 2009 01:17
Whilst for many people the demise of 50 over cricket is inevitable, surely the more pressing concern is that 20 over cricket will go the same way and be replaced by 10/10 games. Why? 50 over cricket is becoming obsolete because teams have mastered the ability to time their innings,leading to the tawdry "knock the ball around" overs between overs 20 and 35/40. Surely as 20 over cricket becomes more popular, teams will discover a consolidation period in their innings also. Admittedly it might be only for overs 7-14 but it will still happen. So this leads to 10/10 cricket to try and drive out the boring overs and then where do we stop. 5/5? 2/2? Or maybe Brett Lee and Chris Gayle should have a 6 ball contest so everythings over in 20 minutes. I fear that our generation's need for immediacy will lead to this.
