I seriously disagree with this view. T20 does not create a level playing field. It only lowers the benchmarks needed to win the game to such an extent that the chances of mediocre teams rising to the fore and winning games increases exponentially. Just because some major teams have struggled T20 does not mean that T20 is a leveler....test cricket is a leveler because it does not allow any scope to hide your weaknesses and only the better team can win.
What started as a means to express my observations when riding the Delhi Metro, is now about maintaining a not-so-personal diary about the "everyday" - Life! Expect a lot of opinions, a love for the unusual, and the tendency to blog about things that don't seem to matter much...on-the-go, unfiltered and with bias.

I agree with most things you are saying. T20 simply does not test the skills of cricketers..it is all bang-bang without giving the poor bowlers any chance of making an impact.
