A new format of cricket has arrived that's sure to revolutionized the way game is played popularly known as "Twenty20 Cricket".
Twenty20 is a form of cricket, originally introduced in the United Kingdom for professional inter-county competition by the England and Wales Cricket Board in 2003. It is a type of single innings cricket in which each team bats for a maximum of only 20 overs.
A Twenty20 game is completed in about three hours, with each innings lasting around 75 minutes, thus bringing the game closer to the timespan of other popular team sports such as football. It was introduced to create a lively form of the game which would be attractive to spectators at the ground and viewers on television and as such has been very successful.The game has now spread around the cricket world (although in India so far only to a minor extent) and there have also been some Twenty20 internationals, with all Test-playing nations having played at least one game.
The inaugural Twenty20 World Cup will be contested in South Africa in 2007.
