[brockley]

8 sides.
Probably 18-20 players for each team.
That means 144- 160 players.
Around 100 players took part in the kfc last year.
So thats an extra 44-60 players.
Extra players to come from futures cup,grade,the canberra comets,australia under 19's,ex players and kiwis with aussie passports.

How players chosen,ideas so far transfers,4 limit each side of top 32 players,aussie players unavailable,salaray cap 1 million $,,3 overseas likely with 2 playing.

Coaches confirmed greg shipperd,darren berry,darren leman,simon hemlot,doubt yet for coyle and arthur,mott likely for 1 sydney side,the NSW coach likely to be trevor bayliss unlikely to coach a sydney side.

Players likely to come back chris gayle,kieron polllard,adil rashid,Bravo, and rana naveed.

Please tell me that you've just not explained that properly...

Can't wait to check in here after a year to see how badly this has failed. Such a poorly thought through idea. At the very best, it'll go the way of the NBL or whatever the **** it's called. At it's very worst, it'll battle to make it through the first few months.

The australian side has tests to early january,then the tri series with srilanka and india,so will be unavailable.
They are trying to get aussie players free for the season after this one.
1 of the melbourne sides is chasing shane warne,good luck.

Are Cricket Australia ********? How do they expect a domestic T20 tournament to be a success when the top Australian players aren't able to play?

 

[brockley]

The itinnery was already in place under the FTP.
After 2012 a new FTP comes in place,so then cricket australia can plan for the kfc and internationals making an international gap.
I gather boxing day test and sydney test would go ahead,but the one dayers then could be played after the kfc cup.

KFC bucket project imo.

Sounds like it's got the shelf life of KFC corn cobs - no longer available in NZ...

wow that c white gets a mill.

Most annoying part, but that's probably why the editor put it there at the top of the page, to get kneejerk reactions from people like me

Non-cricketer Pollard to be the leading run scorer.

I'll be really surprised if this lasts more than two seasons tbh.

 

[AlanJLegend]

"Hey man, are you going to the game tonight? The Perth Scorchers are playing the Melbourne Stars!"

It might as well be a netball competition.

 

[juro]

I'll be watching with interest. Mind you, I won't be attending any games (young children to look after) and if it's not on free-to-air tv, I won't be watching any games either.

So I don't think I'll actually be watching a lot...

 

[brockley]

I can see why the players are complaining some franchises will be worth 50 million,yet players will earn only from a 1 million dollar salary cap like state contracts.
For something that is mooted to be big,players should be paid handsonely,especially players like dan christian who may have to move interstate.
This thread will be busy this winter with player movements it ahould be exciting.
Allready tait and edmonsen on now playing 20/20 wonder how many will follow.

 

[brockley]

Hope the NSW and vic teams heavil recruit from grade rather than going interstate their are heaps of good players in grade tim cruikshank,liam davis,ian moran,victoria theo doropoulos and that liam buchanan.
So heres' fingers crossed.
Wait to see what system in place.
