Re: Ricky Ponting remains unconvinced on Twenty20 concept
And going by your logic, in 2 years we should see a very different 20/20 team ranking report than the odi/test ranking report.
Not really....rankings would be determined based on all 20/20 games not just the World Cup games.
So for example if India and Australia play 15 Twenty20 games against each other in a year , we will certainly know who is the "real" boss....the fluke/luck factor get eroded with number of matches played.
But individual tournaments (like WC) might throw up "fake" champions (this possibility is there even in ODI tournaments but to a lesser extent - plus Australia have become such masters of ODIs of late, that even "luck" is often not sufficient for other teams to win ODI tournaments against them).
Finally, will you agree with me if I say that India's victory against West Indies in the 1983 WC final was a HUGE FLUKE esp after India had scored 183 runs. West Indies came to India immediately after the WC and whipped India 5-0 in the ODI series. So who was the REAL BOSS ?
