I agree with Javgal Srinath's comment that 2020 may stop producing batsmen with copybook shots and defence. While 2020 is a great entertainer in the shorter version of the game chances are that we may stop producing great batsmen like Sunil Gavaskar, Sachin and Rahul Dravid. We must keep this in mind and it is important that the great 5 day cricket is not neglected.
Some kind of ratio needs to be drawn to ensure that matches in the various version played are carefully planned. The other option is to create a separate team for 2020 and the one day international matches so that we area still able produce quality batsmen of world class reputation. There is also a strong fear that if the focus is only on the shorter version of the game in the long run producing good batsmen will be a major concern.
Yes it is a great moment of glory for India to capture the 2020 world cup but we should not forget to respect the 5 day version of the game which is the original father and mother of cricket.
Lets ensure that the core of cricket is not killed with 2020.
