Analysing Tasmania's 2022-23 squad: Tigers' time to shine, or will flaws prove too much?
Absolutely bang on mate. I’m a cricket tragic just like yourself and it’s sad to see the game headed in its current direction. Unfortunately, there’s no obvious way of turning it around with Cricket Australia having their eyes focused on their wallets, which doesn’t help when your domestic competitions don’t bring in much money and TV deals are the primary source of income. Player development is no longer prioritised and One-Day cricket is an afterthought.
