If the BBL were to be played at any other time of the year it would have to compete with the AFL and NRL. And we know who would lose that battle quite easily. The test series being played simultaneously with the BBL shouldn't be a surprise. This time of the year is when people are in cricket mode and willing to go out and watch it. Plus we should all know by now that games played in the night in Aus are massive TV deals. The bigger problem is that the shield game and all other FC comps stop due to BBL. Whereas before Shield and FC comps all happened together with the international calendar. So its not like there weren't other comps competing with international calendar before. Just that BBL has replaced it and is a bigger draw card internationally. CA are under increasing pressure because the validity of selections during a international summer is taking a big hit without proper proper FC comps happening concurrently to assess talent and form of players when needed. As a side note CA actually played it smart by putting the BBL to clash with the test summer ahead of the Argus review findings, which I believe contradicted this i.e. scheduling BBL in the middle of the summer. 01-03-2015, 02:48 PM
