Twenty20

Twenty20’s here to stay. Some people seem to find it sickening because crowds turn up and cheer and it’s exciting, but it’s still cricket and the best players still come out on top. Don’t listen to anyone who tells you it’s all about luck. They’re talking arse.

The format

The approach

Cow corner cricket – when the format becomes one-dimensional

The changing world

How Twenty20 commentary often does the format a disservice
