The Twenty 20 World Cup cricket has opened a new avenue to popularise cricket with its excitement and approach. This Twenty20 cricket may draw the attention of Europe and North America, replacing baseball and other ancient outdoor games. Even five-day Test cricket might be threatened by this new addition to the game. The exciting final between India and Pakistan has left a lesson for Bangladesh to practice the Twenty20 cricket intensively to have a place in the next international tournament. Our tenacity and expertise of Test cricket has proved ineffective, whereas Twenty20 appeared more promising. In Bangladesh, the only game left for us to compete internationally is cricket. Even in rural areas, students play cricket nowadays. We must avail the opportunity to emerge as a sports loving nation with excellence in Twenty20 cricket.
