I am disappointed at the mindless criticism meted out to Twenty20. I don't understand why people insist on degradation of cricket quality in Twenty20s. It is a different format and thus needs different skills. Yes you need skill to play inTwenty20s. Sport is considered to be a great leveler and Twenty20 is even more so because it gives a chance to non-test countries to shine and progress.
I also do not believe that bowlers are rendered useless in Twenty20. In fact, I think Twenty20 will make bowlers evolve and become more skillful. They evolved to accommodate ODIs, they will do so in Twenty20s also. and because every team will try to smash every ball out of the park the only way teams can better each other is gain new batting skills. I am not sure what these are but I am sure we will find out just as we did from the Sri Lankans in 1996.
So stop quibbling and enjoy the beauty of the sport.
