The cricket landscape is going through some changes. 

T20 cricket is gaining momentum, leaving the future of other formats uncertain. 

ICC Board of Directors Chairman Greg Barclay joined Jason Pine to take a look at the future of the game and whether the red ball format is becoming a thing of the past.

He told him that we are likely to see more people turning down central contracts in favour of opportunity within the T20 franchise, and the traditional approaches and contract models will need to change.

“My view is that we should be embracing working with the leagues more, as you say they’re here and they’re here to stay and they’re going to grow, they’re going to continue to be a big feature on the cricket landscape.”
