we can always say that 07 was the exciting one , and yesterdays match was not so interesting and we were all sure that pakistan would make the way , with such low total dilshan failing in the top and sri lanka came to the bottom , it was razzaq who was responsible for the fall of the sri lanka , and he has picked the batsman in regular intervals , but many are saying that afridi was responsible , even if he was not there ,Pak could have made their way easily

I believe 2007 was more exciting.This time i believe the tiredness of ipl did play a role in the world cup.Players were not 100% fit except Dilshan and a few others.I hope in next april when world cup comes again there will be more entertainment.

thanks for responding i think the ipl was one of the key reason why indians failed to play , and if they have got enough rest before the world cup . then they would have played better

Am not sure whether to agree to the fatigue factor. IPL was highlighted as one of India' strength while going into the tournament. It was said that It is the best preparation a team can get. Basically the absence of Viru affected Team India a lot. And Dhoni failed to produce goods with the bat. He came down at no 3 whenever India had a good opening partnership only. Is he afraid to take responsibility in other cases?? Nothing to blame, they didn't play well. Ojha dropped in the last 2 games was sad as well

For me its got to be T20 world cup 2007 was more enjoyable than the recent one, 2007 was more fun to play wise, cheer girls fireworks, more night matches all adds to the spice of the cricketing extravenza.

Yes last world cup was too exciting then this one. But still there were few good matches in this one too. It was a good performance by last year's runner up team to become winner this year. It was good performance as a team and not Afridi or Razzaq were solely responsible but they were the key contributor to their success in this World Cup. India played an unimpressive as a defending champion. Hope they will play well in the future!!

of course 07 was interesting because of the tense final between india and pakistan.it was a edge of the seat thriller match that went till the last ball of the match.Everyone expected pakistan would win the cup.But Sreeshanth's catch of the last ball made india win.

Definitely 2007. Especially because of India being there all through. Would you believe i missed to watch the match yesterday? I forgot And moreover the timings where not great. I would often miss the second match because i have to go to office the next day. And any tournament conducted in India of course generates more interest, i don't know why, because this attracted a good crowd as well. Well, thanks for question and have a nice day

I think my opinion is go on to the 2007 world cup because it's the first world T20 is the First Reason. Second reason i am a indian last T20 india are the champ so i Would tell that one will be the Best. And 2007 world cup more matches are so interesting and each and every match is Interesting and some Close finishes this time not happened in more matches so i would Vote for the 07 T20 is More Exciting one Compare with this T20.

In 2007 everybody were new to the format and so everything was new and exciting.Even ipl2008 was more exciting than ipl2009.From an overall perspective both the WC's were on the same level(leave the final).Now there has been such an overdose of T20 that everything looks ordinary.

i think its because there were not huge sixes in england as that of south africa thanks for responding

Both of them had good things about them.The first one was more exiciting probably because it was the first world cup in this format.But this world cup surely had his own moments

of course 2007,who can forget yuvi's sixes and the breath-taking final between india & pakistan.Afterall 2009 wc was missing big hits,whereas in 2007 there was yuvi,gayle,misbah who were match-winners.
