How is IPL in 20-20 format better compared to 50-50 or Test Matches. This resource is an experience sharing article and the contents are nothing but my personal experience. Cricket first, studies next for me. Cricket fan to Cricket coach. What a transformation. I can't believe it?

Test Match or ODI or 20-20? Which is better? Why?

I became nostalgic after watching IPL Match between CSK and DC recently. During my school days, though I was not fully thorough with the technicalities of the game cricket, but, i was forced to be the fan of SANDEEP PATIL by my elder brother who is a good cricketer. Slowly I developed my knowledge in cricket and at one stage i became a real fan of SANDEEP PATIL. When I was in my tenth standard, i got to know from newspapers that West Zone and North Zone are playing their Duleep Trophy match in MAC Stadium. It was a sunday. I told my father that I have a special class for the whole day and also told him that I have to pay Rs.10/- for it. This was the first time I went out of my place. Somehow, I reached MAC stadium from adambakkam. My favourite cricketer was the captain of WZ and he got three wickets in that match. Before the match was over, I left the stadium so as to reach my home before 6 pm, as I had informed my dad that the special class is from 7 am to 5 pm. When I reached home, my dad looked at my eyes. He did not ask me anything for a while. At around 9 pm he asked me where I had my lunch.

I could not hide the truth and felt sorry for committing a mistake by watching a match in the name of special class. The cost of ticket for Rs.5/= then, today, the ticket cost is between 500 and 20000. I watched the CSK match by paying rs.2000/=, but the thrill which i had in the year 1985 is not the same now when i was watching CSK match. Cricket has changed a lot. It is like watching a movie today. After my college education, i got an opportunity to work for a school as Hindi Tutor and also became Cricket coach. Cricket has became a part of my life.
