On a day when South Africa announced that they have withdrawn from their men`s ODI series in Australia due to it clashing with their new T20 franchise league in January 2023, ace India off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin revealed his fear for the future of 50-over cricket, saying that the format has to find its relevance and admitted to switching off the television when an ODI match is on.
With the T20 format becoming the format to follow for the cricket fans and Test cricket finding itself in resurgence since England won four out of four matches in their current home summer, the future of 50-over cricket is on the edge, especially after South Africa`s withdrawal from the ODIs against Australia came into light.
