I agree. Its about time cricket caught up.why do people hate cricketers making money?.are they any different from other athletes like the NBA,NFL etc.?are we commies?
I wont begrudge cricketers making money-they have a 10 year period to do it and I hope they make the most out of it
The fact is, and it is a publicised fact, that cricket in the West Indies has not only suffered due to poor structures and systems taking place, but also because it is a more financially smart move for an athlete to attempt a career in basketball than cricket.
That simply isn't good for the sport, particularly when the money IS available. Its a bit different when you're comparing basketball to a sport that doesn't have the financial capabilities. Then you rely on the love of the game to reel kids into the sport. But cricket has the money making potential, let's use it.
