Cricket as a game is going through an interesting transformation. New formats are coming forth from the original 5-day Test matches to the 60 overs day encounters and now to the 10 overs version. The shorter the span that is keeping the spectators interested, the shorter the popular format of the game will evolve in the future.

Cricket, like no other sport is building itself into a world established sport which in time may be the only one to challenge football. It is travelling far and wide and with its introduction in the next Olympics, it has the potential to colour the sky around the world with its presence.
