Former Pakistan all-rounder Azhar Mahmood believes that the Indian team was more focused on playing one-day internationals and Test matches and were not inclined towards playing T20 cricket before the 2007 T20 World Cup. Azhar Mahmood feels that it was India's win in the 2007 T20 World Cup that led to the popularity of the format in India. The IPL has arguably become one of the biggest T20 leagues in the world.
