Rather than just an entertaining floor, T20 tournaments became a revenue earning model. Many players bagged limelight courtesy their strike rate and economy.Arguably, the T20I setup changed the face of cricket. There was a period in the game were defending the target of 250 plus was an easy task in ODIs, but as the T20 format gained popularity batsmen gained potential to chase down any target.Although the game vociferated as the batsman's game, there are bowlers who attained more followers with their showing in the format.Now, the T20I is not as young as it was.
