Im angry/sad about the imapct T20 has had on the game as a whole but am beginning to enjoy it much more as a spectacle, mainly because you are starting to see some real skills, techniques and tactics developing specific to T20. Dan Vettori is a freak in this form of the game, B-Mac is developing and has a pretty impressive record. You watch the Indians and the Ozzies to a lesser extent and it seems like they think you hit a 6 or you do nothing but watching Brendon and even Ross Taylor you can tell they realise that you dont need to hit every ball for 6.
As for the f**king bottle throwing that the media as usual is beating up, it looked to me like one bottle that was nowhere near the player. Every comment made by NZ Cricket through this whole tour has to be kept in context by the fact that the BCCI has them by the balls, NZC know who they have to keep happy and they tell us to jump we ask how high and to where. The bottle throwing is a prime example, seemed to me like it had a lot to do with the Indians playing games trying to slow momentum
