20 twenty Vs Cricket

Indian cricket is no better than a coquette. When you think finally some sincere imporvement has come around then next result will leave you no less than aghast. After roaring at the 20 Twenty world cup they are back to there innocous best. The emotional fools that we indians are also make things worse. In no time our plaudit turns into unsavoury acrimony.Media also leaves no stone unturned in burlesquing the effort of the players. Yesterdays national heros are todays cause of chagrin for all of us. Anyway my point here is not to change indian mentality . I am just concerned wheather the hullaballoo caused by indians 20twenty world cup win was worth it? Going by the clangor it creates it can surely create a blase attitude towards the ODIs leave apart the test matches. 20twenty can definitly put cricket in a competative position with football in the sport map seeing the popularity its already getting. So most probably this verson of the play is here to stay and if we are doing good in it its definitly heartening. This version is terse, demanding and excitment is filled in every sencond of it. But in my personal view it lacks the quality that made cricket stand apart. Cricket is not just a game of power like football. Its more about class. Its more about application rather than stamina. With such a short height and unsporty body schine couldnot have been a cult in any other game. Ofcourse anyone can retort yuvi hit those six sixes all with panache . It was flair,not just power play. still it does lacked the mental game. We can see the ball flying past the boundry lines more no of times in a 20 over innings than the whole 50 overs. Ofcourse its in a way boon for the cricket also. Beacuse it was getting too predictable with oz's have a serious advantage in the mental battle. so this puts the fighting in a more even ground. it was quite evident in this world cup. The consucative 3 times world champions thrashed thrice in this world cup. So cricket can all again be called GAME OF UNPREDICTABILITY.
