INDIA vs JAPAN T20I LIVE STREAMING! When & Where to Watch, Match Time, TV Channel & Details

Dear Sport Tak,<br><br>I would like to propose a new structure for international cricket designed to give each major format a dedicated international cycle while introducing a new NBL (Ninety Ball League) International League.<br><br>1. NBL — Ninety Ball International League<br><br>The NBL (Ninety Ball League) would be introduced as a new international league.<br><br>Each innings: 15 overs<br><br>Each innings consists of 90 balls<br><br>2. Four-Year International Cycle<br><br>One major international competition would be the focus of each year:<br><br>Year 1 — NBL International League<br>A 15-over format would be played.<br><br>Year 2 — T20 World Cup<br>A 20-over format would be played.<br><br>Year 3 — ODI World Cup<br>A 40-over format would be played.<br><br>Year 4 — Test Championship<br>The Test format would be played.<br><br>This four-year cycle would provide each format with a dedicated international year.<br><br>3. Why a New Structure Could Be Considered<br><br>The traditional 50-over ODI format faces challenges in maintaining audience interest alongside shorter formats such as T20 cricket. The longer duration of a 50-over match can make it more difficult to maintain consistent viewer engagement.<br><br>A 40-over ODI format could provide a shorter international one-day game while retaining many of the strategic elements of 50-over cricket.<br><br>The proposed NBL would provide an even shorter 15-over international format, creating another distinct option within international cricket.<br><br>4. Test Format<br><br>The Test format would be played over five days under a revised structure:<br><br>DayBattingDay 1Team A — maximum 90 oversDay 2Team B — maximum 90 oversDay 3Team A — maximum 90 oversDay 4Team B — maximum 90 oversDay 5Team A — 45 overs + Team B — 45 overs <br><br>Except on Day 5, only one team would bat each day.<br><br>Early All-Out Rule<br><br>If a team is dismissed before completing its allocated 90 overs, that day&#39;s innings would end immediately.<br><br>For example, if Team A is dismissed after 65 overs on Day 1, Day 1 would end at that point, and Team B would begin its innings on Day 2.<br><br>The same rule would apply on Days 2, 3 and 4.<br><br>5. Potential Benefits<br><br>A clear 90-over survival challenge for every innings.<br><br>Greater tactical importance for both batting and bowling teams.<br><br>Fans would have a simple question to follow: Can my team survive all 90 overs, or can the opposition dismiss them earlier?<br><br>Early wickets could create significant momentum shifts within the match.<br><br>The structure could help Test matches remain competitive and meaningful across the full five-day period.<br><br>The format would retain the traditional importance of Test cricket while introducing a different tactical structure.<br><br>The four-year cycle would give NBL, T20, ODI and Test cricket dedicated international attention.<br><br>6. Conclusion<br><br>This proposal aims to create a clear long-term structure for international cricket while responding to changing audience preferences and giving fans different formats and challenges to look forward to each year.<br><br>I respectfully submit this concept for consideration by the ICC.<br><br>Thank you for your time and consideration.<br><br>Yours sincerely,<br>Shivam Raj
