But I do not enjoy 20-20 cricket at all. A 50 over innings leaves some scope for swings of fortunes, building up an innings, strategizing, and recovering from a few bad overs. IPL has totally failed to keep me hooked, despite the odd match. Test cricket these days is very interesting too - not that fewer teams are playing defensively.
Similarly, the whole iPad (and earlier, iPhone) wave has not caught my fancy at all. I mean - whatever. Its just a device, world, and get on woth your lives please. Nokia still makes better phones (though God knows why they're trying to play everyone else's games). And cool lasts only so long. Here we are, overburdened with info on our existing devices already. Do we really want more pain without figuring out better, easier ways to use/consume/reject this info overload at the right levels without totally losing our lives inside the maze.
Probably just getting old, huh ?

Hey me too - and I thought that I was the only one feeling this way. Somehow 20-20 does not feel like cricket that I have come to love - it feels more like a reality game show packaged to make money for the sponsors and give exposure to the rich and famous to strut their stuff on stage.
