Well, 20 20 really dictates that you get explosive batsmen as opposed to your Dravids, Kallis' of batting.

ODI you can get away with anchor type batsmen. 20 20 forces you to have explosive batsmen and if one of the top 6 explosion comes off you get your typical 20 20 total.

There is no room for 'dabblers' in 20 20. Having said that, ODI is damn boring to watch between overs 25-35.

Test cricket anyday for me. :cool:

I've generally been quite the critic of 20/20, but if there's one thing it has done which is good, its that rubbish bowling by part-timers gets punished.
And good bowling by good bowlers as well.

I realise this doesn't change the fact that part-time bowling generally gets smashed, but the point is that it's not a case of "part-time bowling gets smashed", it's that "bowling gets smashed".
