That's not a bad idea, actually. I like it.

That's how we roll.

The bowl out is pretty pathetic. It measure an ability that doesnt have any thing to do with cricket skills( india proved this by using player who were not good eough bowlers to bowl in the actual match, so basically it had nothing to do with actual bowling skill), they might as well make them run 100 yards and see who does it faster.
The match should either be a Tie. If they dont want ties. an extention of overs is a good idea. They can extend the match be 10%. 2 extra overs in case of T20 and teams start where they left off. I mean only those players can bat who have not been out yet.
How do you like this idea.

It should only be used to decide knockout games, not group matches.

By the way, I have always wondered how the officials would react to bowlers just walking up to the crease and merely rotating their arms and releasing the ball at a pace way lower than usual. That cannot be considered cheating, but definitely does take away a lot of glamour from the game.

this world cup was the first instance many young fans like yourselves have witnessed it. you will soon get used to it. as i said before. a bangladesgi victory through a tie break would be all that is required to convince the fanbase.

I think they should use the concept of extra time... each team gets 2 overs. Whoever scores the max runs wins!!!

that in itself would be a tie break and unless you introduce bowling machines, it would be difficult to offer the consistency in both machines.

i think it should be only for semi-finals and final. cause there you need one team to win. not in the group stage. better solution could be if any match finishes in tie then both team can bat for 1 over and let's see who's gonna win?
