Cricket Australia and State Associations are yet to reach consensus on the proposal to formally test market interest in selling stakes in the Big Bash League clubs.
Private investment in the Big Bash Leagues needs to benefit all of Australian Cricket and this is a major decision for the game. Given CA does not currently have full alignment on the proposed next step with our members, some alternative options are being considered that require additional analysis and consideration with States, and that work is underway.
Australian Cricket remains united on the need to grow and continue investment in all aspects of the game and CA thanks the State Associations and players for their engagement and collaboration in this project.
We will continue to monitor the shifting global landscape, including the player market and developments in other domestic T20 leagues.
