Duckworth Lewis is unfair for 50 over games. It's just evil in the T20 format. Rain hit games should be declared tied. Period.

Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

India have won two out of two games. They are on top of their group. Australia, Pakistan and West Indies have all lost one game each. Bangladesh are yet to play.

Well yeah I would say so. If they can't squeeze in an entire match, or at least set the cut off point to max 2 or 3 overs, then absolutely not. It's a joke otherwise.

No. Not a good idea. Why not resume the match on the next day?

I think Duckworth Lewis makes people consider totally unusual things to be possibilities. A T20 match in some ways is just almost a rain-shortened version of an ODI, and now we have abridged T20 matches. I've also heard of beach cricket, which is growing in popularity, where each innings is 8 overs long, and a hard plastic ball that swings like crazy is used :) Then there are 5 over a side tournaments played with tennis balls that are popular in my part of the world.

I despise the DL method for all forms of cricket! It sucks & no one (read I) understands it!
