Grassroots cricket in Australia needs more investment according to the overhaul of the current remuneration model, as proposed by Cricket Australia (CA) chief executive James Sutherland.
But perhaps CA’s greatest problem has been its inability to publicly justify its most compelling case – that by removing fixed percentage payments in the new memorandum of understanding (MoU) and cutting costs at national and state level by $25 million, it can increase funding for grass roots by up to $76 million over the next five years.
