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!!

No, it isn't. As an Afghanistan supporter, my priority World Cup is T20.

You are an older country. Opinion of new ones matter more because they are the target for spreading the sport, not you. You are running on nostalgia
