Privatization

Just last couple.

Privatisation's a really interesting discussion at the moment, and obviously you've hugely benefited from it.

Finn's just got paid in the big bash.

Cousin Mark just got paid.

Now, the WACA CEO was asked around the privatisation of the scorches.

John Stevenson said this, didn't exactly rule it out.

Privatisation has been discussed now almost since the day I got here.

There's been a long process, a lot of debate, and we acknowledged Cricket Australia's announcement two days ago that the self-determination model is alive, starting with the Renegades.

As far as we're concerned, we feel that, whilst no decisions have been made yet, what we're going to do in terms of self-determination Self-determination means you can opt in or opt out.

And continuing on with sport on page 29, CA says BBL, private citation, privatisation is for the best.

Cricket Australia says opening up the big bash league to private investors is in the best long-term interest of the sport in this country.

Privatisation in the BBL has been approved just months after Cricket Victoria's controversy decided it wanted to merge the Melbourne Stars and Melbourne Renegades.

Despite NSW and Queensland being fiercely against privatisation, CA is forging ahead with its bold concept.

Tasmania, Victoria and Western Australia have long been in support of the decision.

CA will consider allowing other clubs to go online on the market depending how well the sale of the Renegades goes.

Private investment will unlock value for investment across Victoria cricket, from the grassroots through to the elite game cricket Victoria director, Sean Richardson said.

Privatisation opens the door for BBL clubs to be renamed and colours changed, as was the case with the 100 in England last year.
