IMO one of the problems with the 50 over game is too many innovations.
They should try making it simpler.
absolutely. get rid of these power plays etc. its all artificial.

predictable and boring, and the amount of comment on RSC about the Eng/
Oz ODIs suggests that there is not a lot of interest - even amongst
those who know, love and support the game.
well making it even more complicated like bloody baseball is not
the answer. the real reason behind public lack of interest
is that there's just too many of these bloddy ODIs. also the
ashes have been won, so who cares? usually these odis have
some interest becos they are played before the tests, but that
couldnt be done this time becos of the windies matches
and the 20/20 WC (held at the same time as the county
20/20 and numerous other one dayers). the greedy
authorities will kill public interest by product saturation.

now THAT would be exciting!
NOOOOOO!!!!!
I can just imagine tomorrows ODI, England start off well but
continually lose wickets, eventually have to take the PP at over 45
with the score at 200/9 and Onions get out 7 times and Sidebottom
another 5 and we end up having to defend 140!!!!!
