5 interesting suggestions from Sachin Tendulkar to keep Cricket relevant

#3 Two innings per team in ODIs

Sachin had written to the ICC suggesting ODI matches be played in two parts, Test match style. Each team gets to bat 25 overs before the teams bat a second time. This was a good idea considering that in some grounds, toss plays a significant role in the outcome of the match itself.

Late evening dew or early swing, too much sun or too much dryness can all have interesting effects on the game. Therefore, Sachin’s suggestion was quite valid.

However, the ICC rejected the proposal on the basis that there was no immediate danger to the future of ODI cricket and implementation of this proposed change didn’t have much support at that time.
