Thing is with 20/20 any team can win.. At least with test cricket you know the top teams will win 95% of the time.. 20/20 is a toss of a coin to who comes out ontop.. No point in getting annoyed because another team hit 3 more boundries in 20 overs than another.

dont think even many indians care about this t20 series. I think indian fans hv become more intelligent. ipl was successful because indian cricket was doing well. now we will see the actual result.

though I did like yuvi's batting. he has really worked hard. looking foward for odis vs pak.

the stadium was not even 3/4 full. yes more people definately came to the t20 if u compare it to the tests, but wait hasnt that always been the case?

post wc we have not seen many full houses even in odis. its definately a knock on effect from the poor performances and too much cricket.

Missed the game live so avoided the result and watched the highlights, should not have bothered. Batting was ok but bowling was awful, so many wides.

Can't say i'm looking forward to the next one but sure I will watch.

Not in England its not.. We fill grounds for nearly all the test matches.. Anyway it cant be losing commerical value in India. The host broadcaster wanted to rob SKY for the rights to broadcast.. Am glad they didnt cave in..
