I mean, there's so many teams bidding on Beth Mooney.
We had the Manchester Super Giants with Meg Lanning at their table.
Matthew Mott as well, the former Australia women's coach.
Two Aussies there.
So keen to get Beth Mooney into their team.
And eventually...
they got outbid.
I think what will be interesting in future 100 auctions, because at the minute, realistically, the depth of talent in women's cricket is not the same as it is in the men's.
And so I think teams were much keener to spend big money on the real top players.
Eventually that gap will close and you'll see that the money being spread out
a lot more.
I think also, just to go back on the money spent in the men's game, how keen teams were to spend on English, on domestic players, just because they know the availability is there.
Over a number of years, you sometimes don't know which teams are touring, all those sorts of things.
I think also the way that the money going to English players, just shooting some of these women up, the highest paid sportswomen in the UK.
And I don't know, Al, is it a spin bowler?
Has it got you looking around thinking I could have my name in there?
I mean, £15,000 was the highest wage in the Women's 100 when you played in that first season in 2021, Al.
And I think one of the concerns about the sales of these 100 franchises
was so much of the chat was around the men's game and whether or not there would be still focus on the women's game but a lot of the investors have spoken about well actually the value in buying into these franchises comes from the fact that you're buying into a double-headed tournament men's sport and women's sport together the 100 is quite unique from that point of view we've seen the growth of the WPL in the past couple of years and now
It's the women who sold to big money yesterday who are seeing the benefit from that.
