578: ROBBIE MILLAR: MONEY AND COUNTY CRICKET - How does it all stack up? PART TWO

Listen on

Episode notes

James Buttler is joined regular fan badger Neil Virani to speak to Robbie Millar, a Lecturer in Sport Business Management in the Academy of Sport and Physical Activity at Sheffield Hallam University.

The discussion moves onto the private equity ownership in The Hundred? Is that good for the game, what opportunities does it offer, is it open to abuse, will it ultimately lead to a fracture in the game between The Hundred counties and the rest?

The chat rounds off with a look at cricket's global finances and whether a more equitable distribution of wealth is advisable and/or possible? Can Test cricket be preserved?

They also broaden the discussion out to the world game and the sustainability of international cricket, particularly Tests.
