Sri Lanka score 6/260 off their 20 over against Kenya. Jayasuriya 88 off 44, Jayawardene 65 off 27 and Mubarak 46 off 13. That has to be a record score in 20/20

That's an amazing score

I think 20/20 will change the way 50-over games are played

Sides will see what is capable in 20 overs and re-set all their targets for 50 overs now

The same way 50-over games changed (sped up!) Test cricket

And then why the hell would you want to be a bowler. Flat pitches made for smashing!

That's true - you could probably just have a machine firing the balls down!

But lets be honest its always been a game designed for batsmen - 20/20 takes it to a new extreme
