What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Morning, Matt Heath. Morning, Meshie. Boys. Gotta cook it up. Come on and cook it up. Breaking news.
What is the breaking news about NZ Cricket and the NZ20 franchise?
Breaking news. Well, it's already broken by the time we put this podcast out.
What were Mashy's Top 3 Moments from the Super Rugby weekend?
But New Zealand Cricket, the board has made a decision. Good God. And they have decided in their infinite wisdom to support the T20 NZ20 league franchise option. Wow. That's a great result. It took them a while to get there, didn't it? Yeah. Didn't I just announce the other day that we're going to take ages to decide?
How did the Black Caps perform in the 4th T20 match?
Yeah. I think they've copped so much grief from everyone. But the thing is, this is the statement. It says, New Zealand cricket will pursue the proposed NZ20 franchise league as a preferred option for its domestic T20 competition. But here come all the caveats. The New Zealand board has made an in-principle decision to support the establishment of the new league. Could someone have a pair of testicles anywhere near the organisation? It's subject to satisfactory resolution of key commercial, structural and governance matters. So basically everything to do with the league. For it to happen in time, don't they have to just go balls to the wall to get it done? Hang on, there's more caveats here. While not a final commitment,
Oh, my God.
What are the latest updates on the Warriors' performance?
The decision allows NZC to focus resources on advancing discussion toward a potential license. There is so much fluffiness in this. And a binding commercial arrangement with the NZ20 League. NZ board chair Diana Puketapu-Lyndon said recognising NZ20 as a preferred option was a significant step in the process. That is the most pathetic thing I've ever heard in my life. She said the boards thoroughly debated the choice between potential expansion of Australia's Big Bash. addressing all central issues involved.
What feedback do listeners have about the show?
He quoted, there was extensive discussion on the merits of these proposals, but the board concluded that now's the right time to revitalise our 21-year-old Super Smash competition. Wow. What's a 21-year-old? This followed broad consultation, particularly within our cricket network. and careful consideration of a wide range of information and advice, including the Deloitte Report. The next steps include working with NZ22... Can I just say, can I just stop you there and say the fact that they got consultants in when they're a board and supposed to be in charge of cricket, and then they cowardly got some consultants in? This is several changes to the original NZ20 proposal needed to be negotiated before a final decision was made.
In particular, we want to work with NZ20 to ensure it incorporates and supports the women's domestic T20 competition, that it maintains a level of prominence and visibility consistent with the New Zealand cricket's strategic commitment to the women's game.
That's what I like to hear.
Ensuring regional representation. She also noted the NZ brand carried significant global value. So? bolstered by the impressive performances of its national teams in the ICC. Yeah, okay, whatever. This is an exciting time, blah, blah, blah. We owe it to everyone to negotiate an outcome that best serves the interest of the game here. And we're confident.
Just have some guts.
Just actually do something. If you want it to succeed, you have to go hard against the odds. Everyone's swimming in the same direction to get something done. to save the game that you guys have driven into a cliff. And you release that. That says, if you're Peter Volandes, if he was in that boardroom, He would have said- Well, he would have said, New Zealand without NZ20 is not New Zealand. It said, you guys are a bunch of idiots. If you want this to work, you're just going to have to go hard. Yeah. You can't be pissing around with your stupid chat GPT, 58 ways to get out if you don't do it bullshit.
There's so many caveats now.
It just should have said, we're going to do it. Yep. Let's fricking go. Yep. That would have been a great release. That would have been a great release. We're doing it. Let's go. Let's do it.
What are the challenges faced by NZ Cricket in the new T20 league?
But no, that says that they're going to waste as much time as they can on bullshit that's got nothing to do with making it work.
