Potential Action Against Players
To address this issue, the ECB is planning to take strict measures against players who abandon domestic matches for overseas leagues. Last year, 16 England players played in the PSL and this year, the schedule of Major League Cricket, Global T20 Canada, Caribbean Premier League, and Zimbabwe Afro T10 has also clashed with England’s domestic season. The ECB may release a comprehensive policy in this regard next week.
This policy could reshape how England players manage their participation in global T20 leagues while maintaining their commitment to domestic cricket.
