What the hell was that ?
Last time, Gilchrist was wired when was batting as well. He hit two
sixers in two balls. On the mic, Slater asked for another six.
Gilchrist obliged.
Pushing the envelop a bit. Imagine if Gilchrist were out in his
attempt to hit the third six.
Vicky:
20/20 is hit & giggle. Nobody in Australia takes it seriously. That will
probably change. As others have pointed out the 50/50 game probably won't
last much longer so they'll have to take this shite seriously.
They team take it a lot more seriously now, after that Twenty20 world cup
loss, and they would be desperate to defeat the world champions as well as
get in a good frame of mind for the ODI series..

You got to be kidding. Look at the crowd in the stadium. And the noise!
Takeiteasy.
>>Vicky:
This real time communication between
commentators and players on the field should not be allowed
during play since the commentators can inadvertently relay
tactics, pitch conditions and other important information
that can be used by the team.
They do take 20/20 seriously, otherwise there wouldnt be 90,000
fans in the stadium on a friday.
ermmm its been going on ever since the game was invented...
Once time gilly was wired to symonds, and they could talk to the
commentators and hear each other, symonds told him what kind of ball was
coming so gilly was able to get ready for it. Thats a bit much....
Commonplace. But now they are trying to sepak to Sehwag and if he's
understanding one word in three then my name is Buddha.

This realtime communication also distracts players from the
action on the ground.
I dont like it one bit.
Whose genius idea was it ?
I didnt notice it in T20 WorldCup.
Thats what I thought too when I watched the commentators
speaking to Sehwag.
It really distracts players from the action on the ground.
> Whose genius idea was it ?
The team at Nine's Wide World of Sports? Given that the definition of
a "genius" is an IQ of 130 or more, I surmise that it was at least
three of them who worked together on the idea.

I doubt that Nine's team had to do any thinking at all. They just
lifted the format straight from its inventors at Sky UK. Two players
from each side have been wired up for televised T20 games in county
cricket since day one.

There's no point getting rid of it. 20/20 won't be any more exciting
anyway. Plenty are saying 50/50 will disappear, what is more likely to
happen is a radical change in the game somehow. Like 2 innings of 20 overs
or something like that, then we can beat India by an innings in a 1-day
game instead of only needing half an innings to beat them in 20/20 :-)

You might have noticed they were talking to sehwag as well
cricketleague? If it ever gets semi-serious, they'll stop talking to

At 11 years old 20 overs is a big match, at U13 some guys won't get to
bat, at U15 unless there is a mismatch then hardly anyone gets to bat.
After spending efforts to get underage cricket played over more overs,
the adults start playing 20 overs cricket.
To be fair the problem / blessing that our local clubs have is that 20
overs can start at 6pm and produce a result. The minimum agreed overs
allowed is 20 so 20 overs it usually is.
20 overs cricket on the evenings and 50 overs cricket on the weekend.
It's been happening for years.

There's no reason you can't change the rules of junior cricket (say 14 &
under) to make it more like indoors. 20 overs a side, 10 players a side,
everyone has to bat for 4 overs and bowl for 2. Take runs off if you get
out but you don't leave the crease until your 4 overs are up, so you can
actually end up with a minus score after your 4 overs. The taking runs off
for a 'dismissal' would teach them to value their wicket. Making everyone
bat & bowl, well you never know it could sort out our all-rounder problem
in the space of 10 years or so. Once they get to under 16s they can revert
to normal cricket. It sounds bizarre but the important thing is to give
every kid a go.
At that age it's fine. I played under those conditions. But not
as an international spectacle.
20/20 is not junior cricket.
Cheers,
Rod.
50/50 will be around long after you have gone
It is a spectacle in adult cricket.
As an opener or a finale to a series it seems to be a good thing.
I'm not so sure about a 20/20 world series or the world cup. That
Oz/Ind match sorta tore the ass out of the concept.
All the junior league and cup matches are formatted by the cricket
union. As you say there is nothing to prevent clubs organising matches
or tournaments by themselves.
The only cricket I get to play now is 20 overs Taverners rules on a
Friday evening. If I haven't got an umpiring appointment that is.
Friday is senior 20/20 night in the NCU league and as umpires become
more scarce, the remaining umpires get more appointments and I really
mean *remaining umpires.
I'm the skipper (victim) of the social team and I am plagued by
juniors and senior team players who want to get in on the Tavs matches
(MoM medal and stuff). I have no problem picking 6 over 13s and 5 over
40 (Tavs should be over 40). I only let the senior team guys play for
the opposition - Usually the Firemen or postmen social clubs team .
We charge a match fee and have a collection and the proceeds go to the
Oxfam school dinners programme.
There is lots of cricket out there that is not on TV.
Look forward to another subtle and witty response
Not ALL but many, who take the same economic decisions as, say, Poms in
Oz or vice versa. Pity, given the need in India etc, but it is an
opportunity that some understandably take up.
