Berlin: He is not the one to be enamoured by the razzmatazz of T20 cricket and that’s the reason why Ian Bothan thinks that India needs to understand that there is more to the game than the shortest format only.
“I am disappointed with Indian cricket right now. Cricket is more than just a 20-over game, they need to understand that.
“England’s contests with India always used to excite me but right now, I don’t know what to say,” the legendary all-rounder did not mince words during an interaction with Indian journalists on the sidelines of Laureus World Sports Awards. “Where is India going in Test cricket? Why is it happening to the team? Is it saturation of Twenty20? India needs to figure out,” Botham said and added: “You can have Twenty20 matches but it cannot be week in and week out. People get bored of it.”
