I was watching 20-20 b/w WI and england and it occured to me that India is not and can never be ready for this game. we all know 20-20 cricket sheer raw muscle power and our country where 90% cricketers are born Rahul Dravid we can't hope to make 170 score in 20 overs. At best we can score 150 off 20 overs and then rely on over bowlers to do the trick. Except for dhoni no one can really smash the ball hard enough to clean the ropes Consistantly. We know how over team collapses under pressure. I remember on several ocassions when we neened 100 of some 95 balls with 8 or 9 wickest in hands, our players faild to hit the needed bounderies coz every time they tried to hit a big shot they were caught weel within the boundry rope. So, we can stick to the wicket in longer versions of the game where talent is more omportant than power but this 20-20 version is not Designed for Indians. We are naturally built like sissies. We carry far less muscles than our western counterparts. We are mostaly shameless vegetarians and coz of some stupid unknown reason , proud of being a vegetraian. All the vegetarians are a disgrace to cricket and other physical games and should be banned from all the physical sports.

Dude, I hope u know all that u just said applies to you also. Well ofcourse if you are an indian, unless you are some western guy 'loving' to have indian name.
This is from the current lot. All these boundaries looks like opposition just throw the ball to the boundary themselves right.
India is not improving coz of people like u. Born and Brought up in india, eating food that is from india, drinking water from india and still talking nonsense about india. Man(not sure if u r really one or sissy), learn to love ur country.

Ur right Jags Mr.Saxena is not a vegetarian he is shitaterian, he wants others to eat shit to understand the shit he is talking about. Most of the moderna day body builders prefer to be vegetarian to improve muscles as well as stamina,I know U can't but try to talk sensefully next time if not dont enter forums like this.

I do agree with u both Mr.saxena is not Indian and I am also has all the doubt he ever played cricket in his life. Hitting sixes or fours is not always muscle power. Did he watched playing Mr.sidhu? People used call him sixer sidhu.Whatever he said is just applies to him not any other indians. Indian cricket team is always a much much batting team. Please.. you Mr.wahtever and you eat whatever.. do not type shit in the room.
The limited over cricket is already in favour of the batsman. Batsman know the fastest bowler cannot bowl more than one bouncer. Even a tailender will lift him for sixes. Its a very stupid rule. In fact they should have given the bowler advantage of another bouncer. It would have made the game more competitive.
Its high time TV shud be used for LBW & caught behind etc if batsman or bowler demands.In case the decesions proves that teh umpires are correct then accordingly penalty levied ...
Instead of changing the rules ICC should concentrate on spreading the game so that it is played at good standard in more than 9 countries. and make the game more popular rather than changing the the rules
The free hit is absolutly stupid rule, This will allow the batsman to have slog. What make cricket a special game because of the skill level of players, don't make it baseball.
Great Guys..... The way things are going, in future we definitely need some constitutional experts to interprete the rules and regulations. ICC .... please keep the game simple and enjoyable. Dont complicate it by too many regulations.
changing rules every year is not good for any international game. Last year we had seen substitute player after that it was taken off now we have again new rules !!!!!
We will have a day when the batsman will get extra 100 runs if a bowler bowls a delivery. if the bowler does bowl then the batsmen again will get 100 run. If a bowler commit suicide in the field, the batsmen gets 100 runs.
