Is there room for more?

With yet another format of cricket being launched, will Test Twenty achieve its goal of attracting younger people to the sport, or will it cause even more damage to longer formats?

Test Twenty is an interesting concept. Contested over one day, each game will include four innings of 20 overs a side.

The first edition of international league, which starts in January next year, has some backing from global cricket legends, with the advisory board consisting of former Proteas star AB de Villiers, as well as Harbhajan Singh, Clive Lloyd and Matthew Hayden.

It will feature six teams — one each from the UAE, England and the United States, and three from India -and the squads will include players from around the world.
