The future of One Day International (ODI) cricket is indeed facing challenges due to changing preferences and the fast-paced nature of modern sports. In the 80s, cricket was a novelty, and people were willing to invest days in watching matches that lasted for extended periods. However, as time has passed, the world has moved towards faster and more dynamic forms of entertainment.

Today, ODI matches, which are limited to a maximum of 50 overs per side, are considered relatively long when compared to the much shorter and more action-packed Twenty20 (T20) matches that capture the audience's attention. These T20 games can conclude within just a few hours, making them more appealing to a wider audience.

The truth is that modern viewers, except for the die-hard cricket fans, generally prefer the excitement and brevity of T20 cricket. Consequently, it is reasonable to expect that the One Day format may continue to decline in popularity, potentially leading to its eventual demise as people increasingly gravitate toward shorter, more fast-paced cricket formats.

The world is moving on a fast rate, so is the world of sports. In the 80's when the cricket was just invented, people were excited to see it. And within no time the popularity of this sport grew a lot. The audience were so invested in watching the game that they were ready to sit for days and watch it. In the old times, one match was played at an average of 5-7 days. But now if we compare the situation to that day, the maximum number of days a match is played is 3 days. Except the hardcore cricket fans no one is really interested to watch such long innings. So they have created a shorter version of that, i.e, one day(50 0vers). As time passed people lost their interest in this format too. The audience watching cricket now wants only fast innings, the match that gets over just within hours. So concluding, yes the One Day format of cricket will die soon, as people are just interested in fast and exciting innings played by the players.
