'Fraid not. I caught about 40 minutes of Pakistan v. Bangladesh and about 15 minutes of a couple of other games, and what I saw didn't make me want to watch more - players trying ugly hoick shots, dismissals that were terrible, dancing girls (little tip - no sport that is any good requires cheerleaders to keep the crowd excited), and players being utterly bereft of any decision making prerogative by the format - they have no option about how they go about the game - hence its hard to get excited about them going the tonk because its not a choice/risk like it is in Tests or even ODIs, its a necessity. It like the difference between how exciting it is when a punch or two are thrown in the footy compared to in a boxing match - less is more, especially in a context where it is somewhat unexpected and has consequences attached.
