Of late the scores has been reduced and we see less people turning out for matches. The reason could be there are less scores in the matches and people love to watch bat dominating the ball. The pitches have become slower and hence, less scores compared to those of in the beginning matches. The other reason could be many Aussie players left..
What are your thoughts on this..

May be you are right or wrong, but these form of cricket is new.
My view is that by conducting this iplt20 cricket matches it has gained popularity and as the days goes by it will gain more.
As Imran Khan has said in this form of cricket you will not get to know the best team and the best player. The cricketer here needs only the technique of hitting every ball to the boundary or sixes, hit out or get out type. In a test match defensive techniques get prominence.

this is bound to happen my friend.a lot of the start have already gone and now they are left with the normal ronjy team players and so now they are not attracting much. plus i think there is too much cricket. everyday a match is ot a very good thing. this is making cricket cheap. when every u open the tv channel you see cricket,.

Yes, absolutely! Ipl is losing its popularity,its just a hype of media,and i think it is over after so many days of its start. It is not a original game,it gave rise to many controversies and the cricket played in IPL is not at all gentleman's game any more. It is very hard to bring Glamour and the Game of cricket on the same tracks.
