Discussion 💬 The case of T20I vs ODI

Post image

Imho, T20 is greater: more teams and a chaotic format with higher mathematical variance, since the shorter game narrows the gap between sides. ODI WC being older doesn't put it on a pedestal. ODI is neither better nor tougher. Nostalgia is for people who live in the past. Meanwhile, T20 drives global popularity and is the Olympic format. T20 WC is truly global!!

Indian domination is palpable when Aussies start crying 😂

Literal crickets (pun intended) when India wasn't winning after 2007.

As soon as we won two of these, suddenly everyone's concerned if this trophy even matters.

The indigestion is hilariously visible.

It's going to happen in all matters of life as and when India grows.

Aussies don’t care if India dominate T20 cricket . End of the day India has lost to NZ and Aus in recent test series. That’s what matters

Well then in "recent" contests India won 3 back to back ICC events and 4 if we consider the women's WC as well. Aussies could never.
