^^^ Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawn. They do this all throughout 5 days and after a while, it gets boring. Really boring.

Watching talented batsmen whack below standard medium pacers out of a 60M ground is also rather boring

I like ODI's

T20's are OK to watch, but the demise of ODI's has been greatly exaggerated.

India-Aus series was brilliant, How good was Sachin's innings? First game finish? Marsh's century? Hussey's six? Sehwag dispatching ball after ball?

There were many close and enjoyable games, with changes in momentum, thats why I prefer ODI's to T20's (It's great fun being at a T20 though)

Tests > ODI's > T20

This is up there with the worst threads going around, not surprised though, the member who made it is a spastic.

A lovely clip to leg > A horrible swipe from the King of Fail.

I never found ODI cricket to be boring or disgusting. I actually love watching every form of cricket- be it Tests, be it ODIs or be it T-20s. Each has an unique charm of it's own.

To be honest, my favorite format is the ODI's and T20's have not replaced that. It offers the perfect balance between aggression and skill. Yes, the middle overs are boring but thats because of the advent of T20 that people are finding it boring. Its actually a period thats so crucial to the game. The better you consolidate, the better your chances of finishing up with a really good total. Its a bit like Dhoni "ugly but effective".

ODI's will never lose to T20.

People thought the middle overs were boring before T20 came in, which is why it was actually brought in.

How long before they think the middle overs of 2020 are boring and we have 1010.

It was not so common perception before T20 came. After it came, the perception permeated a lot more rapidly among many audience in the world.

 

[Ollie_H]

It was still a perception though, although I do agree not so much. The ECB brought T20 to try introduce a new perspective on the game and to introduce more people to the game.

Aren't you a Rahul Dravid fan? I think he's a great batsman, but if you think tests are boring, why is Dravid you're favourite player?

Yeah. Love the way he plays. He can score freely too. Do you know he scored a 22 ball 50 against Australia a few years back in ODIs?

He plays solid test cricket, but not everyone defending the delivery is Rahul Dravid. He is elegant and majestic.

I find tests boring sometimes. Atleast I'm not a hypocrite and I admit it
