Minimum of 20 overs have to be bowled for the result to be considered. We can't afford to wait till 20 overs I guess. Finish it off as early as possible should be the approach now that both seem to be settled a bit.

It came down from 25 to 20 with the advent of T20 cricket.

And we are well on our way. This is how we should be dealing with teams like Afg regularly if we have to demand better treatment at the ICC.

wow..that 6 by Mire was huge...straight over the top.ball lost. I don't think there is a better striker of the ball in the team..it would be interesting to rank the big hitters.

for me its

1-Mire
2-Waller
3-PJ
4- Elton
5- Hami

honourable mentions Raza, the myth of Cephas Zhuwao and Musakanda who looks like he packs a punch

I'm sure I remember Richie Benaud discussing the possibility of a 15 over game during summer storms over here
