Completely agree on the Impact Player rule. It has added excitement, but it has also reduced the value of all-rounders and made team balance less important. T20 cricket is at its best when teams have to make tough tactical choices.@sachin_rt

Abolutely correctly said by Master..I think most of us will agree to his opinions and will relate (Atleast who knows cricket).

If Sachin speaks about cricket, I’m listening before I’m arguing. 🐐

I love the 5 overs idea. Brilliant. Maestro for a reason.

When the Master speaks about cricket, it’s worth listening. 🏏 T20 needs to keep evolving, and finding the right balance between entertainment and fair competition is key.

The impact player rule should go away, this is the need of the hour.

Sunlo. Ipl body bcci. The suggestion is from the master's mind. Every suggestion with justification. Apt. Otherwise the ipl is gonna loose ita charm in sometime.

Only an amazing, intelligent cricketer like @sachin_rt could say all this ! Amazing insights. Great man, Sachin.

Sachin thinks impact player is only for batsman and not for bowler

All brilliant ideas. I mean are you really going to debate anything coming out of the gods mouth ??

Wow… the GOAT said it… it’s a batsmen dominated game now…

When the God talks, you listen

if this happens SRH will finish in 10th position😂😂

End of debate on impact player rule, it needs to removed from next season itself.

Naive people don't realise that Sachin is lobbying for removal of impact sub rule because with no impact sub rule, suddenly all rounders become extremely relevant in a XI like before, So his son Arjun Tendulkar can make it into a permanent member in team playing XI

India's achilles heel is quality seaming allrounder.Get rid of that impact sub.Restores balance to a great extent. Spinners (esp finger) are becoming extinct with dew. Why not use an old ball after 10 overs? Brings reverse swing also in the game. Better contest than muscle mania.

T20 itself should be thrown out of cricket! Only a ODI makes enough sense to show real ability, patience, resilience, and talent in cricket,T20 is a fake measure!

I dont think impact players should go, But the game has to be more bowler centric The pitch, the powerplay restrictions etc Enough of high scoring matches Interest is slowly fading away if the team is not scoring atleast 150.

Everyone is listening carefully because god is saying something❤️

Why is there a limitation om the number of bowlers bowled by a bowler and not the number of overs batted by a batter? The whole game is biased in favor of batting.

All these suggestions are the best💗🔥. Thanks you Sachin Sir for rising these issues. T20 is getting boring.

In the IPL, batsmen often play on flat pitches that offer little for bowlers. With the impact player rule favoring batsmen even more, it leaves bowlers with limited options. While the rule adds excitement, it heavily disadvantages bowlers.

We should also have a power play of 2 overs at the discretion of the bowling team - ability to have as many fielders outside the circle. That would give a balance to the bowling team. Fielding captain should decide when to take those 2 overs. Impact player should be stopped

- No power play and fielding restrictions at all - 5 overs x 4 bowlers (not just one) - allow 5 overseas players (RCB has one extra always, lives in UK, but Indian passport for now. Ding ding :))

100% agree

Should T20 cricket return to a bowler focused balance? Scrapping the Impact Player rule is essential because it is currently reducing the role of allrounders. Sachin is right, but adding a 5th over for one bowler might hurt team strategy more than it helps.

Impact player made openers slog more

YOU KONW NOW WHY HE IS Greatest CRICKETER OF ALL TIME..

Totally agree!

They can add a bowler also not just a batsman #SachinTendulkar garu 🙂

Agree completely to all the suggestions

Fielding team will delay and they utilize the power play in the last over to avoid penalty fiekder restriction.

Good Suggestion

A batsman thinking about Bowlers Only 🐐
