very good evening to all of you. I agree that T20 kill real cricket skills.

T20 is beneficial only for entertainment. But the only test of players will be through test cricket. Because it is a 20 over game per side ,so the cricketing skills will not be completely tested. So at last i can say that the craze for T20 cricket is only for short time.

Hi. Good evening to everybody, today our point of concern is "Is T20 Cricket kill real cricket skills or not". I am in the favour that T20 cricket is killing real Cricketing skills. A game attracting more people doesn't indicate that the game is in its natural harmony. Many friends have said that people are more encouraged by T20 previously. That doesn't indicate that real cricketing skills are not hurtled. Now-a-day You can watch that players are not interested in developing the classical shots but want to be a hitter. While classical shots really inherits the beauty of Cricket. Also this T20 cricket is also dangerous in patriotic aspect. Players are more willing to make money rather than playing for their country. So, overall T20 cricket is killing the real cricketing skills.

I don't think t20 format killing the original cricket. If a player hitting sixes or four quickly it doesn't mean that the player forgot his skills. As in test matches players learn how to play slowly and patiently, in the same way, in t20 player learn that how to score quickly and bowlers learn how to stop them from score quickly.

T20 is killing cricketing skills as real cricket skills is technique and focus for longer hours, unlike the slambang version of T20. But ironically, all the boards look up to T20 to take the business of cricket forward along with its globalisation. So if you were copying football style formats like Champions league, IPL. Etc. Then you will have to forego either one dayers or test matches to take cricket forward and avoid player burn outs.

No, T20 does not any affected on Real Cricket. In world cup the croud is too much and for final match All tickets had sell before the match and in Test Matches Results Comes Quickely. T20 is Good for Real Cricket in ODI matches before 2007 teams scored 350 facing difficulties. But after

2007 teams scored easily 400 and chase easily.

According to me, the player who is able to show his best in test cricket can play any limited over game then it may be 50-50 or T20. Nowydays people want result in small time and money also...so the players are now focusing towards T20..and my opinion is that T20 is all about the "LUCK" nothing else...as we all remember how India won T20 final against Pakistan.

Good afternoon friends. In my opinion t20 is not killing the skills of players, it always grows performance of players. I hope that t20 is the god's gift to cricket world. Each player wants to show their performance at peak level. In that t20 matches have less overs, so that they have to be scored with less balls, to achieve their goals it gives a way that is it consists less overs so they won't get more tide. Now a days most of the people wants entertainment out t2o can satisfy them. It is a super chance for un-progress players to show their talent. Coming to disadvantages, it is one of the way to earn money.

Good morning to all. In my opinion T20 format is the god's gift to the cricketing world. Because it will boost the performance of the players. Within the limited overs every teams and players want to show their level. In the ground players want to do maximum. Apart from that the duration of game is short. This factor also reduce players tiredness in the ground. So all these factors helps to increase players performance. This performance helps players to lead in the other form of cricket. So i strongly tell you T20 is not killing real cricketing skills. Instead it boosting skills. Thank You! M.KARTHIKEYAN, VEERAPANDI.

In my opinion I don't think it is killing the original essence but it is more fun to see our players plying in the same team India for our country I mean the recent world cup win was the greatest happiness and IPL breaks that unity and players just play for the sake of money.

Yes it is true that T20 is killing cricket skills. As it is very very fast game of cricket and players only want to hit long and long shots which goes to the boundary. No one play which technique whether he is any other player. As we can see after T20 cricket if player plays 50-50 or test then his stamina will be reduced as he played 20-20 very fastly.

The tossing coin itseif has two sides. I am coming to the point that t20 can affect the cricket in dual ways. It has many advantages like. 1. Its very fast and removes the boredom. 2. It is very useful to grow in countries where cricket is not strong. 3. The associate countries can be competed with ranked contries. 4. There is no pre-match winner probabilities. 5. The likes of IPL makes tremondoes oppurtunity for yougsters to showcase their talents. 6. Innovations at the extreme at batting, bowlig and fielding too. But along with these merits, there are demerits too.

1. Players are go behind money than country value. 2. Too much innovations and decaying of "class". 3. Tendency to retire from ODI and Test to concentrate oly in t20s. But in my point of view changes are mandatory, ie, if we are trying to stop that, we would have been living in caves. So its my openion to take the good qualities from t20s and apply them to the longerformat to up its grade. The pure cricket cant be destroyed by t20s. The great sachin tendulkar is a living example for this as he is shining in all formats with proper cricketing shots. So KEEP THE BASICS IS THE REAL KEY!

According to me T20 cricket is not killing the real cricket skills.Cricket remain same only overs are reduced,it bring a lot of fun among the viewers.Younger player are getting more chances and team India is getting new talents.We can take example of latest IPL which was a great success. So instead of saying that it is killing the cricket skill we should welcome dis form of cricket........THANKS

From my point of view T20 is not killing the talents of players, it will increase the talent of the players. Why because in 50 over format games batsman usually scores the loose deliveries. But in T20 format batsman can able to score in the right areas even the ball pitches in the right line that increases the concentration and talent of the players.

Before the 20 20 has arrived every one seems to watching the full 50 over match. After the arrival of T20 it covered and entertained lot of people. Nowadays peoples doesn't want to see the entire match they will see only the power-plays because they want sixes and fours will be there continuously.

I don't think t20 is killing d talents of the players. A good player is someone whocan adopt any format of the game. Apart from that a player need to be more fit physically n mentally, more concentration and intelligence is required. ITS not like a player cant play a beautiful drive and only big shots can work, I would like to give an example of sachin n kallis. These two players are successful in this format too n both of them are equally good at playing tests n onedayers. Their games are not at all affected by playing this format n they are doing exceeding well. So it depends upon on the individual how to to adapt themselves in all d format. Besides that its much more entertaining format where batsman n bowlers fight hard on d field. From spectators pnt of view its much more entertaing n its short duration makes it more demanding format. Because these days people have very little time n so they prefer to watch this format. From players pnt of view there is enough money involved in this. So I don't see any demerit in this game.

Hello friends, according to me t20 cricket is a challenging aspect for players. It involves some funny shots as well as technical shots. In present time world is progressing so game must also have new version people don't have time to watch for 9hours of cricket a day, people just want short but enjoyable cricket. A real talent depends on players for example: Sachin tendulkar is comfortable with all form, we have seen his technical shots in t20 cricket as well. So I believe t20 cricket involves more interesting shots, skills, confidence and how you can handle pressure.

T20 is said to be a batsman's game but it also provides the bowlers ample opprtunity to get wickets in quick succesion it also tests the bowlers mental strength. In my view T20 is a different type of format and I think its hampering the test and 50 over format because batsman are getting pretty hasty in getting fast runs and are losing wickets they are not inculcating the need to stay at crease for a long time.

Hi friends, I am Vishwanath, I agree with you. Why some one are saying T20 circket is business.why all are believing that T20 cricket is crushing the traditional cricket like one day match and test cricket match. We have to know that all these format are recording to the cricket. In all these formats a cricketer needs a lot of concentration and capable of shot selection as well as he must have intelligence playing skills. One thing we have to know that in test cricket we have five days time. So naturally every cricketer play with intelligence and he is going to good shot in this format. As we are coming to the one day matches we have 50 overs so the players are going hit the ball in batting powerplay. That's the thing in T20 cricket players doing which is commonly doing in 50 overs match in batting power play. This is my opinion. There is one default regarding to the T20 cricket the spectators of the cricket are boring to see the one day matches and test cricket matches after seeing the T20 cricket matches. In this time I strongly support the T20 cricket is going to the disturb the minds of cricket spectators.

We cannot precisely say that the T20 cricket is killing the real cricketing skills. T20 is quick and thrilling for the spectators but for a cricket it is the most backbreaking format of cricket. They really have to be in the 100% form to win, as even 99% is not acceptable. The pressure from the authorities and spectators is immense on the players and to cope up with this they really have to demonstrate their cricketing skills. Also, T20 format of cricket gives equal opportunity to upcoming cricketers. Along with T20 matches we are regularly having the ODIs and test matches which equals the craze for the T20 matches. So, What ever be the format, we cricket-lovers want cricket.

Let's welcome this new facet of game and see what magic it creates in future . I think all the 3 formats need to be respected to bring out the different dimensional talents of players . In this religion of Cricket , all players of devotees .

Yes. I think the T20 format diminishes the techniques in the cricket. In one day format and test cricket players put more attention and they play with technique. In T20 format we don't need any technique but we need some hand power to hit the ball because the ground is very short. The T20 cricket is only for short time entertainment like a program. Many technical players like Dravid, Laxman lose their place in the T20 team. Because they did not hit the ball as hard as other batsman.

A very good morning to everyone here.I would to begin by introducing myself.I m D currently pursuing my final year engineering in XYZ college.. Before we start our discussion i think it would be fine if we knew each other better and request everyone to introduce themselves one by one..... Now that we know quite well about each of us i would like to commence the discussion by providing my views on it.... The topic given to us is whether t20 cricket is killing real cricketing skills.I am strongly of the opinion that cricket is losing its austerity and charm owing to the recent trends in development of t20 cricket. The reason being that the shorter format of the game is much more interesting with a shorter duration has increased the craze towards it.People are more interested in watching it rather than the traditional and conventional formats of the game due to the gala involved in it. But the actual obscured fact is that t20 does not recognize the true skills that a cricketer is ought to possess.It provides a much shorter duration where the key word is to go for the big shots and score quickly rather than hone their skills instead.

Even the players with sound technique in their skills are forced to adapt to a rather bashful and unconventional methodology which kills and denounces the purity and skill present more in abundance in test or even the one day formats. So, the craze on t20 is just short lived as it can never possess the ability to test or increase the skills of any cricketer and its only the true test format that is healthy for the substantial increase in the level of quality cricket.
