We've got a few things to work through and finalise, and we're optimistic about that.

We'll be looking to...

make some announcements hopefully in the, again, in the coming weeks alongside the schedule.

But, um, yeah, it's been, it's been amazing to see the level of interest, not just from India, but around the world in the future of the BBL.

I think that while that comes with some interesting discussions on ownership and the like, what it does reinforce is just how passionate and popular the BBL is globally.

Yeah, it needs to look like a BBL game.

I think we...

We have a unique product on the global landscape.

There's nothing like a BBL game in world cricket.

You can go to any other league and you'll see different things and different strengths, but a BBL game in Australia is a unique and powerful product, and we can see that in our crowds.

We want people to turn on the telly if we end up executing this game.

Turn on the telly and see that looks like a BBL game with an Indian flair, I guess.

If it is in Chennai, for example, that has a unique...

They've got a unique crowd and passionate and there'll be lots of yellow Dhoni shirts in the crowd, I'm sure.

But first and foremost, it needs to be a great experience for our players if we do it and a big crowd and then look back into our Australian fans like that's an amazing BBL experience, even if it's not in Australia.

Yeah, I mean, I think it's the latter.

I mean, we'll find out if we end up doing it.

I think, you know, part of the DNA of the BBL is from day one has been taking chances, taking risks, innovating and trying new things.

Even 15 years in, we've got new rules coming in this year.

We've got new contracting models.
