'Opportunity': NZ Cricket board chair says NZ20 league will bring more capital for domestic game
New Zealand Cricket's certain ditching any talk of joining Australia's Big Bash League is the right move.
NZC has chosen to set up its own privatised T20 competition, rather than attach itself to a league that is facing its own challenges.
Australian states are divided on whether to embrace private equity or continue controlling the BBL teams themselves.
NZ Cricket board chair Diana Puketapu-Lyndon says the NZ20 league will offer a capital fund, which will help the development of cricket at a community level.
