T20 is the vehicle to make cricket a truly global game.
If you look at cricket per se, if you didn't have T20 cricket, Test cricket will die. People don't realise. You just play Test cricket, and don't play one-day cricket and T20 cricket, and speak to me after 10 years. The economics will just not allow the game to survive.
T20 is fast-paced and a wonderful vehicle to attract wider audience. On a technical level, it probably has impacted Test cricket.
Traditional cricket has gone out of the window. It's gone. T20 cricket has changed the game.
I've played a lot of T20 cricket and know the game.
Any spinner can change the game. It's been proven in T20 cricket.
You never know in T20 cricket. Anyone can have a day out and take the game away from you.
In T20, there's a time shortage because you've got four overs. In one-day cricket, you relax, and the game goes long, and you only win the game in the last 10 or 15 overs.
Twenty20 is must for cricket. Without T20, cricket cannot survive.
I think T20 cricket has become the flagship spectacle for women's cricket.
With Test cricket, it's very important that you are bowling at high speed but T20 cricket is a great way to be versatile.
When you turn up at a ground, you expect the wicket to behave in a certain fashion and it doesn't. There are so many variables in this game. It becomes even more important when it comes to T20 cricket.
I think what pace bowlers need to do in T20 cricket is not just run up and bowl fast. It's not about brute pace in T20, it's about the variation.
T20 in international cricket can almost be paid lip-service at times, with one game tagged on to the end of an ODI series or a long tour - sometimes it can feel like there is no point in playing it.
People complain about too much T20. But the only recognised T20 in Europe is the Blast so if we are going to grow the game outside the U.K. it has to be everywhere.
If you are going to raise youngsters for Test cricket that don't have the experience, you can't stick them into T20. You've got to teach them first how to play Test cricket, and when they're good enough for Test cricket and if they want to play both formats, then they can.
Franchise T20 competitions are great and the skill level is very high, but playing for your country is a huge honour and T20 is so popular that it should be recognised as an international game.
