Suren Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 So what do you think? Is Twenty20 the real format for the Olympics? While the idea of Twenty20 is not bad the way it is being implemented in sacrilage for me. I think too much importance is being placed on Twenty20 at the moment. Please state your choice and the reason for that choice. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/665102-poll-twenty20-for-the-olympics/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

acnpt Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 (edited) I guess at least it would mean some cricket coverage on terrestrial television, in the UK. I voted yes, but I don't think it will happen, as not enough countries play cricket and then would want to play the twenty20 variation. Why are all these North Americans saying the olympics are over???? He obviously means the Olympics in the post below!!! :o Edited September 4, 2008 by acnpt Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/665102-poll-twenty20-for-the-olympics/#findComment-589738248 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suren Posted September 4, 2008 Author Share Posted September 4, 2008 Obviously, I am talking about the 2020 Olympics. That is when next change will be made.

FiB3R Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 Well it might get more people watching it (including me) so that can't be a bad thing, can it? :EDIT: Nothing was obvious about your post :whistle: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/665102-poll-twenty20-for-the-olympics/#findComment-589738272 Share on other sites More sharing options...
zulugod Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 I am a huge cricket fan but there's no point having cricket there. Not enough countries play it. I'd like to see Golf in there. Not sure if it ever was but that would be my tip on the next sport to get the call up.

ahhell Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 (edited) OOOOOHHHHH! The 2020 Olympics. WTF didn't he just say that. Geez. What's with the Twenty20 anyway?

.Kompressor Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Twenty20 is wicked. Time to get cricket into the "fun" sport genre....not the boring golf arena. I think it's the future of cricket....take it or get left behind..

surrealvortex Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 Why not? It is more feasible to implement it in this format. It's shorter and more entertaining.

halluc1nati0n Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 It's actually pretty lame to include cricket in Olympics.

shakey_snake Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 No, becuase its entertainment as opposed to proper cricket, commonwealth games yes, olympic games no. AND isnt really a world games yet.If standard cricket is not entertainment, why play (or watch) it? All sports are entertainment, duh.
