We’re back with Part 2 of our huge conversation with Lalit Modi on Beyond23. In the second half of our wide-ranging chat, we turn our attention to cricket’s place on the Olympic stage and what the Games could mean for the sport’s global future. With T20 set to play an increasingly important role in growing cricket around the world, we discuss the opportunities, and challenges, that come with cricket becoming an Olympic sport. We also dive deeper into the decline of ODI cricket. Has the 50-over format lost its place in the modern game, or is there still a way to bring it back to life? Modi shares his thoughts on what needs to change and whether one-day cricket can find a new identity in an increasingly T20-dominated world. And then, we have some fun.To wrap things up, Lalit Modi takes on our rapid-fire round, answering a series of quick questions on cricket, players, memories, opinions and everything in between.

We’re back with another huge episode of Beyond23, and this week we sat down with Lalit Modi for a wide-ranging conversation about the future of cricket. From the rise of T20 and the impact the format has had on the global game, to the decline of one-day cricket, Modi shares his thoughts on where the sport is heading and whether traditional formats can survive. We explore what it will take for Test and one-day cricket to remain relevant in an increasingly T20-driven world, the challenges facing the game’s existing formats, and whether cricket needs to rethink how it is structured for the next generation. Modi also reflects on his own journey, what comes next for him, and where he sees the biggest opportunities across the game. With T20 continuing to reshape cricket, we ask the big question: can the traditional formats survive, and what does the future of cricket really look like? Beyond23 is brought to you by Radar Tyres.
