Sachin Tendulkar wants change in ODI format

Indian batting maestro Sachin Tendulkar has written a letter to International Cricket Council (ICC), suggesting future changes in the 50-50 format of the game.

In his letter ICC CEO Haroon Lorgat, Master Blaster has urged ICC to bring changes in the ODI format to keep the interest of the game intact.

Tendulkar wants that 50-over cricket should become a four innings game-- with 25 overs slots played alternately between the two sides.

Tendulkar feels that it will give equal opportunity to both the teams in case of due factor and rain. Sachin said that, in present format, Toss pays major role in deciding the result of the game. But in case of four innings game, it will give equal chance to both sides.

He further says, bowler should be allowed to bowl 12 overs each. He also wants fiddle with the Powerplays to give advantage to the fielding side.

With this letter, Tendulkar has stirred the ODI format row but it will be interesting to see whether ICC will accept his Idea or not.

Tendulkar is the maximum run getter in ODI games. He has the highest number of hundreds in ODI. He is the only cricketer in the world to score a double hundred in ODI. Tendulkar is the most capped player in ODIs.

No doubts that he has the tones of experience and his suggestion can be proved vital to add more spices in the game.
