This 'flight of talent'

"We are seeing the beginnings of a trend in which annual contracts across all formats of the game
are being declined by players at both domestic and international level worldwide.
This 'flight of talent' from the traditional 'vertical' pathway with players moving to
where they are increasingly valued, and can build more lucrative careers
has the potential to undermine both the quality and value of international cricket
which already sees many top players in the world not playing for their national teams
on a regular basis, or at all."

players are now taking a "horizontal pathway"
- where they travel the world year-round playing various domestic T20 leagues
like the IPL and the Big Bash (the two most popular voted by the players)

fire dem ass

A group of old men have decided what young people want, so we should all just shut up and accept whatever garbage greedy cricket boards foist on fans who actually love the game.
