Sachin Tendulkar-Will Sachin excel in Twenty20 cricket
Sachin Tendulkar has one of the best international cricket records in test and one day international cricket.The big question is whether Sachin Tendulkar can do well in the Twenty20 version of the cricket game,replete with the no-ball rule and the sudden death.
Sachin Tendulkar can use Twenty20 cricket to prolong his international career
Sachin Tendulkar may retire from test and one day international cricket, but he can extend his international cricket career by focusing on Twenty20 cricket internationals
Sachin Tendulkar could take solace from Hollioake,who became a star of Twenty20 cricket at the very end of his cricket career.Twenty20 cricket is less demanding on veteran cricketers like Sachin Tendulkar compared to traditional test and one day international cricket matches. The entire Twenty20 cricket match is done in just three hours and the veteran cricketers can very easily adapt to Twenty20 cricket matches
Sachin Tendulkar will do well in Twenty20 cricket
My bet is that Sachin Tendulkar will be successful in Twenty20 cricket tournaments since there is no alternative to playing with a straight bat and cricket talent will always come to the fore
I am really looking forward to seeing the great Sachin Tendulkar create Twenty20 cricket match records!

Who is the best Twenty20 cricket player ever?
In the short history of Twenty20 cricket,played around the world,who do you think is the best Twenty20 player ever?
A short survey among cricket fans for the best Twenty20 cricket player ever came up with the two names
Â
Â
- Pollard – the youngster of Stanford 20/20 (Twenty20) fame
- Holloiake - the veteran Twenty20 cricketer and the most successful player in the Twenty20 cup in England
Â
Hollioake was perhaps the greatest and best Twenty20 cricket player in the world in his prime and Pollard with his hard hitting talent seems to be the perfect Twenty20 cricket exponent of the future.

Twenty20 cricket international-Australia hit world record Twenty20 cricket score
In the Australia Vs England Twenty20 cricket international,the Australian cricket team has set a record for the top score in Twenty20 cricket internationals
In the Twenty20 international’s short span of twenty overs,the Australian cricket team scored 221 runs for the loss of five wickets
In this record breaking Twenty20 cricket international,James Anderson was the most hapless bowler, conceding a record 64 runs off just 4 overs. This Twenty20 international  saw all the England bowlers being given the “stick” treatment by the Australian batsmen- Monty Panesar bowled the best among the England bowlers by picking up two wickets
Almost all the Australian batsmen had a whale of a time in this Twenty20 cricket international-Gilchrist scored a 29 ball 48, Ponting scored a 26 ball 47,Symonds scored 23 ball 39,and White scored a 20 ball 40.
In response to the Australian cricket team’s record breaking score in this Twenty20 cricket international, the England cricket team are 32/3 off 4.1 overs with only Vaugham holding the fort
Obviously, the rest of this Twenty20 cricket international is purely academic- the result is well known and it is familiar for this England cricket team on the Australian tour

England take on Australia In the England Vs Australia Twenty20 cricket international today.
England has a very good chance of salvaging some pride after been blanked out in the Ashes cricket test series.
Players like Pieterson and Flintoff are ideal for Twenyt20 cricket internationals and a single good knock from one of these England batsmen will make them matchwinners.
Our statistical simulation of Twenty20 cricket internationals between England and Australia shows that England do have a very good chance against Australia-if only the England cricket team could get their morale issues fixed after the thrashing in the Ashes cricket test series.

Twenty20 cricket may help cricket veterans prolong their cricket careers
Traditionally,Twenty20 cricket has thrown up exciting performances by cricket veterans like Adam Holliake and Sanath Jayasurya.Veteran cricketers such as Brian Lara,Sachin Tendulkar and Sanath Jayasurya can look to play more international cricket in the form of Twenty20 internationals after their retirement from Test and one day international cricket
Twenty20 cricket obviously requires less exertion than traditional test and one day international cricket matches
Twenty20 cricket could really help Lara,Sachin and Jayasurya play more years of test and one day international cricket matches. Imagine the juicy proposition- Sachin Tendulkar,Brian Lara and Jayasurya could be playing years more of international cricket. Also, these cricketing greats could break more international records in Twenty20 cricket and not let upstarts grab all the cricket records in this new exciting cricket format
