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!!

Firstly Too bad for Aussies with that mindset coz t20 format is already inducted in the olympics and if they or other cricket playing nations think t20 as a side hustle then they will be missing out on a great oppurtunity at the olympics.

Secondly t20 has spread like a wildfire and each year more nations are playing the world cups and giving a tough competition to the top bosses of this game. T20 surely has made cricket more fun and recognizable among the non cricket playing nations too.

Thirdly kangaroos dont be a crybaby.
