Let's replace T20 with S7

Looking at the scores for the last two international matches I had a great idea.  England and the Windies scored about 330 runs in a T20 over night.  Just before that the Aussies and the Proteas scored almost half of that in a "S7"- a T20 shortened by rain to a 1 hour slog-fest.  A match about 1/3 the length resulted in about half the runs.  Perhaps we need to move to S7 matches permanently.  That way we cut out the boring middle overs of the T20 format.  It also means that with a bit of planning you could hold 3 or four matches a night- in different stadiums if you like.  That way we could have the whole Big Cash League in about a week, and the IPL in a fortnight, so we can get back to real cricket.
