Answer 2

playing roster to 16 with the proviso that only 11 players may bat or bowl in an innings (the batting and bowling 'sides' of a team need not be the same)
Change the way the 15 over fielding restrictions apply - stipulate that fielding restrictions will apply during the first three overs of each bowler's quota, rather than during the first 15 overs of an innings
The changes may appear radical at first glance and there may be a few concerns about their feasibility. The rest of the article describes the rationale behind the suggestions, the positive manner in which they can affect the game, and how they can be implemented.

Before we start, a look at the two main arguments that are commonly trotted out to make the case against the long-term prospects of one-day internationals. The format has been strategized to death, say the first camp of nay-sayers, and is becoming increasingly predictable - slam bang in the first 15 overs, singles and consolidation in the middle overs (when fielding captains oblige by setting fields deep and routinely give easy runs away), and then another flurry in the end. Everybody in the system knows their roles pat - aggressive batsmen at the top of the order, bloody-minded accumulators in the middle, bashers down the order. The bowlers follow a similar formula - wicket-taking bowlers at the start (at least from one end), the bits and pieces men who most often fill the 4th and 5th bowling slots in the middle (with the odd burst from a front-line bowler), and then the specialist death-men in the end. Most games follow the same pattern, and as indistinguishable games follow each other, diehard fans have begun to switch off - the only thing interesting about one day games now is the result. Everything else may well be played out on a computer, or perhaps not be played at all. The Twenty20 format follows the last dictum - why not do away with the middle overs and just focus on the slogfest (allegedly the only exciting part about cricket)?

The other, and perhaps more pertinent, quibble against one day cricket is the diminution in the average level of skills and the unabated proliferation of bits and pieces cricketers. The trend has affected bowlers more than batsmen and it is quite common to see top bowlers cooling their heels in the pavilion while 'batting allrounders' fill bowling slots, ostensibly in the interest of the balance of the team. Thus, the middle overs become even more excruciating to watch than they would otherwise have been, as quality batsmen keep the board ticking over against bowling devoid of any guile or venom. The game has become less a contest between bat and ball and more a game of attrition in which bowlers of limited ability follow ultra defensive tactics to mi
