I genuinely think that it's an ugly format for the game, which strips away all the subtlety / technique of proper cricket, rewarding defensive bowling and ridiculous batting - might as well watch baseball or rounders.
Lots of people watch Jeremy Kyle - doesn't make it good television, or good for television.
I do recognise the above as just an opinion from someone brought up watching test match cricket though...
