FTP changes could harm New Zealand

Posted on 06/07/2009 in New Zealand cricket

The ICC will meet to discuss the Future Tours Programme next week and serious noises are being made that the top four want to play each other more often, which means the rest could be sidelined in the new programme, writes Dylan Cleaver in the Herald on Sunday.

In fact India hold nearly all of the cards. The commercial success of the IPL has added another revenue stream to coffers that were already bulging with broadcasting cash, the Champions League will add more, and they lord over the "Asian bloc" that dominates the ICC voting. In scale, New Zealand rates as no more than a pimple on the BCCI's backside.
