ACA CEO: Todd Greenberg, CEO of the Australian Cricketers’ Association, believes that the increase in earning opportunities for players from the franchise T20 leagues circuit will put more pressure on domestic and bilateral cricket systems.

“We’re certainly looking well in advance of where we are now and trying to predict what that looks like, the hard thing to do is if we go back 10 years we never would have predicted where we sit right now.”

“I’d love to tell you I’ve got that crystal ball, but what I can say with some certainty is the T20 leagues around the world are growing, they’re growing commercially and they’ve got much more private investment in them than they’ve ever had, which means that earning opportunities for players will increase which will put more pressure on the system domestically here and will put more pressure on bilateral cricket here,” said Greenberg on SEN Radio.
