World Twenty20 repeats the trick
Dave Tickner, in his blog on Cricket365.com, says the World Twenty20 has, so far, been an enormous hit except for the forgivable blips of the farcical opening ceremony and the ridiculously attired cheerleaders.
We're halfway through the tournament already with the excitement only set to rise over the second week as we race towards the business end of the event.'Leave them wanting more' is a maxim rarely heard inside the ICC, but international Twenty20 cricket has been allowed to remain a rarity, a treat.
The tournament is the perfect length, and other international T20 contests are rare enough that the format retains novelty at this level and avoids the fate of 50-over cricket.
