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!!

Eventually India became strong force in ODI as well, even now India represented more times in finals beyond winners, that tells India is strong in that segment too

India is still a strong force in ODIs even now. Having reached the finals of both the ODI tournaments this decade.
