Has one-day cricket become boring?

Indias performance , after the 20-20 proved to be mind blowing as India crushed pakistan and bangladesh with ease, even tho we lost in the finals , it was still a close fight having a huge score to chase, Normally India would loose far behind, But this time around, we have barely reacted even after two thumping victories. Has the impact of the three-hour, Twenty20 format with its dollops of glitz, glamour, and action-packed entertainment been so immense that we are falling out of love with the one-day game? Is the new kid on the block eclipsing the 50-over game? Has one-day cricket become outdated and boring?
 
well i feel not at all one day is one day no form of cricket can replace it i feel cos one day cricket is a game which checks skills of batsmen and bowler and 20-20 i fell is a slog cricket even a bowler can bat like a batsman
 
I wud agree to some extent on this topic with you.This is same as watching a mega serial after watching an action packed film.But I could say ppl would prefer watching a 20-20 than one day cricket.But still there are cricket fanatics who watch one day match withour fail.It all depends on the ppl.Some mite like action packed films while some mite like the mega serials.I can surely say 20-20 has taken-over some of the audiences from the One day format.

In 20-20 you never know , what can happen till the last ball, and its possible to win da match even till da last wicket , whereas , In 1 day, its not the same!

The ease with which India crushed Pakistan and Bangladesh in the ongoing one-day series proves that our boys are clearly at the top of their game right now. And while we're proud of our Men in Blue and their new-found confidence, the euphoria that usually accompanies an India win has been absent. Not too long ago, cricket enthusiasts would spend hours at the water cooler on a postmortem of an India-Pakistan match. But this time around, we have barely reacted even after two thumping victories.
