With more and more franchise T20 Cricket leagues popping up around the world, cricket is facing many changes and challenges.
Black Caps Devon Conway and Finn Allen have become the latest in a line of players who turned down national contracts in favour of playing in franchise leagues.
New Zealand Cricket Players Association boss Heath Mills joined Piney to discuss what this means for the future of the game.
“I can't in any way see how it's good for our sport where we have franchise competitions competing directly with international cricket, for the interests of not only the players but also for the fans.”
