RIP ODI Cricket

ODI brought in the right kind of change from Test cricket to balance a long format with a short format that guaranteed results. However, in the middle overs (as large as a 30 over chunk), the ODI game meanders and today, it has the unfortunate distinction of being neither here (Test) nor there T20).

In other words, the ODI has passed the "use by date" and should seriously be canned.
