The influence of T20 cricket on the game at large is reflected in the reception players like Sam Konstas have received in recent years. The governing body of cricket faces challenges like an overloaded schedule, leading to issues in providing a more equitable spread of international fixtures.
As Test cricket evolves, it becomes increasingly a game of two levels: the Big Three and the Next Six, debunking the idea of a two-tier Test system. Former Australia captain Ian Chappell has criticized the current structure of international cricket and raised questions about the sustainability of T20 cricket.
Will T20 cricket become wearisome due to its popularity? Can cricket shrink to save itself from issues like schedule overloading? These are questions that cricket enthusiasts and stakeholders continue to ponder. Despite the challenges, the game of cricket continues to captivate fans worldwide with its rich history and competitive spirit.
