Simon Katich questions CA $33 million BBL loss

Upon hearing of the purported $33 million loss, Katich argued that such a claim needed independent investigation, and added weight to the players' claim for independent mediation to settle the present pay dispute. "The claims that CA has managed to lose money on the biggest success story in world cricket must be independently investigated," he said. "Record crowds, record ratings, record sponsorships and merchandising sales each and every year, yet CA are claiming a loss. It defies logic and good business sense."

Money creates the sport, and money destroys the sport. I am all in favour for an independent investigation to make clear exactly what's happening with the money.
