Everyone is entitled to their opinions, but I hope that ODIs don't disappear. I've grown up to watch and follow Tests and ODIs, I'm a traditionalist. And when too much Twenty20s were played in India, look what happened, people said there was too much of it. A good balance of Tests, ODIs and Twenty20 is the perfect combination, it's just a matter of finding it that's all.

It would be an absolute disgrace if that happened IMO.

The game could do with some fine tuning though, perhaps make the captains one of the 5 over power plays in the last 20 overs or something. The boring just 'milk the singles' and save for the end though the middle overs is a bit dull.

IMO under a new system, every side should play 15+ tests per year, filter in a few T20s and ODIs become the exhibition match instead of Twenty20. OD cricket is dying and T20 cricket is better for the marketing appeal of the game. Instead of having 4-5 T20s a year have 4-5 ODs and a big chunk of T20s. This is how I can see it happening. The World Cup will stay in place every four years, but the amount of one day games will drastically decrease in the not too distant future.

This is just how I see the ICC doing it.
