Aren't T20s exciting?

[Tyberious Funk]

The announcer is screaming loud enough, the music is blaring mindlessly, we have fireworks and the commentators are constantly reminding us that the game is exciting. So I guess it must be exciting.

I think some cricket is being played, too. Which is nice.

To be honest the American basketball announcement for each individual player was the most embarrassing bit.

Davey WARNER SWITCH HIT! KABOOM! ZACK!

 

[JUBJUB]

Can anyone explain why they need 10-20 dancers on stage at a cricket game ?
If you want to go and watch skanks and ****y blokes dance then go to a bloody nightclub.

I flicked over to Channel 10 at 8pm and when that show ended, I realised I had no interest in switching back. And this is from someone who gets twitchy without access to a live scorecard at all times during a Test.

It's really cringe-worthy, such lowest common denominator stuff. The style of game is tolerable; it's all the trimmings which put me off.

A switch hit???

ZOMG!!

That was shit.

And the music between each delivery sucks.

But it's alright to have on in the background.

Well for half a second when I saw Brett Lee carrying sand out for the crease I thought he was going to do the Lebron James chalk toss.

Just me, or is Binga carrying a few kgs?

this fast paced talking isnt doing my irregular heart beat any favours

I used to face one over left handed and the next over right handed, and I was 15 playing District cricket. Don't know what all the fuss is about Warner being able to do it, it isnt that hard.

Don't you understand? Warner is changing the face of cricket.

Changing the face of cricket I tell you!

I bet all the other kids laughed at you!

Following in the footsteps of his brother...

Shane was always a bit chubby though - even in his playing days.

that's why his knees were cactus

only requires the trait of being ambidextrous, no biggie

but i do agree with you that it's all a bit much, he's not the first.

 

[stmookeyj]

More importantly, yet another match where a team wins by scoring over 170 batting first. HO HUM PREDICTABLE!

 

[SugarShane]

Dunno what you guys are complaining about. There's such a great atmosphere around T20s. The atmosphere is always electric. They just know how to bring the atmosphere. It's really good for the game to have such an atmosphere follow the sport around. ATMOSPHERE~~!!!!

Noticed that too, he'll start to look more like his brother in a few years.

W@t3v3r dud3s, the way it's presented may be a touch moronic but I really enjoy watching Twenty20's. Mind you, 95% of that enjoyment comes from seeing inexperienced players like Christian, Faulker, Birt, Wade etc try their wares.

If you thought there was great ATMOSPHERE tonight, just wait for Friday night!

 

[Parquet Court]

have they done that moneyball thing before at the start of the match??

horrid

 

[neng]

I enjoy 20/20 cricket watching it live in person. I enjoy watching the Big Bash on fox sports. But channel 9 just ruin it with all their little 'gimmicks'. Fox sports do it well and do it simple, no need to shout into the microphone every time the ball travels over the rope.

 

[Parquet Court]

listening to the channel 9 hyperbole and hysteria about david warners kabooms gives you that uneasy dirty feeling afterwards. like when you have a wank while your girlfriend is sitting in the next room

 

[happy_eagle]

What the hell was with that moneyball crap
