The format has been a huge success to the extent that crowds attending twenty20 fixtures are better than those at fixtures played under the other rules of the game. This is largely down to the fact that as the name suggests, Twenty 20 Cricket is played between two teams with each batting and fielding for twenty overs each.
The popularity of Twenty20, often reffered to as T20, is such that it has expanded from the domestic game through to International level with the most popualr competitions in the game being the English Twenty20 Cup, the Indian Premier League (IPL) and the ICC Twenty20 World Cup.
