Cricket's Constant Format Changes Not Good For Talented Players
One should not ignore the fact that cricket is fast losing its charm as a game which allowed the players to showcase skills associated with legendary players.It's now turned into pure entertainment , ensuring big sums of money for both the corporate giants as well as the players. Definitely, time constraints or,for that matter, limitations forced by the modern times cannot be ignored but that should not come at the cost of the better aspects of game.No wonder really talented batsmen like Dravid and Tendulkar would become a thing of past if commercialization is allowed to dictate the game.


T-20 type matches may provide some real entertainment to viewers besides ensuring huge sums of money for the players and sponsors but this all come at a heavy cost.The players turn into puppet in the hands of corporate bigwigs.Their shot selection is not based on cricketing skills but based on an urgency to provide some thrilling moments to the viewers.I don't know whether game like cricket are simply aimed at entertaining crowd.

In other words,ICC should ensure that sanctity of test matches and one dayers should remain intact.Anyway,it has always been the case that superstars who play well in one dayers fell like pack of cards in test matches -something which demand refined skills not just the ability to hit sixes and fours !
