I also like to see spinners on a turner with 4 in close. Just feel T20 is too short and wickets don't have enough value

I'd rather see fast bowlers steaming in with three slips and a gully and batters struggling than guys belting every ball out of the ground

Well South Africa is a country which has a cricket team. The West Indies is a region which has a cricket team. West Indies set a world record score, and South Africa chased it down and won the game
T20 means a form of cricket where each teams innings is limited to 120 balls (pitched)

Agree, as someone who knows both. The funny thing is if you know one you can pick up the other in 15 minutes if you sit with someone who can explain as you go

A guy scored 72 runs without getting out as Ireland beat Scotland. What's the hard bit?

Yep, to each their own. To me T20 is kind of an irrelevance in that I don't follow ateam, so dont care who wins and I don't think I've ever watched a full game of it. Whenever i have watched any it just seems to consist of sixes being slogged over cow corner or edges going for 4. I do think some of the fielding improvements and development of new batting techniques have been interesting though
Plus none of my friends or kids have an interest, but I'm happy for those who do follow it
On the other hand I've regularly watched every ball of a test match and can remember certain matches vividly - because I care about the result
