Thanks to Twenty20,technology, media, and the sheer financial power of Indian cricket,the gentleman’s game is on the brink of radical changes.Nation-based cups might give way to T20 professional leagues;umpires might be replaced by technology; and professionalfranchises, not national boards, might call the shots.
