Mark Taylor fears BBL idea could hurt Test cricket
The former Australian captain stressed that he personally loves watching and following Test cricket and does not like the idea of another big event taking attention away from it.
Australia will play New Zealand in a Test series starting December 9. So, to me, any sort of game like that will take away from the Test matches, which I love. So once again, it's a bit of a trade-off; you're going to see big bash teams or two big bash teams go to India right at the time that the Australian cricket team is playing in a test series here in Australia.”
Mark Taylor warns Cricket Australia against chasing only money and T20 leagues
Taylor also believes Cricket Australia must think carefully about what is best for the future of the game instead of focusing only on money and entertainment. He warned that cricket should not become only about players earning huge salaries in T20 leagues.
Taylor signed off by saying, “So, as I said, we're going to see more of it; finding the solution is really tough, but I just hope that everyone gets together on this and thinks about what at the end of the day is good for Australian cricket. Bear in mind, we've got to produce the next lot of cricketers as well, not just the ones that are making good money today.”
