The ACB is going own the same path and if it wasn't for anti siphoning--
laws there would be no proper cricket on FTA.

For the nth time Chuck, the "ACB" is long dead. It's CA now.
Anyway to your point... CAs concern with grass roots cricket suffers from precisely the same flaw as pollies setting policy and funding for public schools. Their kids go to private schools so they don't give a toss about either.

That may well be the reason but I see it as short sighted. Yep they have
the big bucks now but if it is effecting the future of cricket obviously
not good. It is even dumber if they can see what is happening in the UK after EB sold of all the rights to pay TV.

Yes, The ECB did a deal which came into force for the 2020 English
season whereby the BBC can show England home T20s and some matches in
the new Hundred competition live,
as well as hour-long highlights of
other England home matches (which had previously been shown on a
different FTA channel)..

yes it certainly seems that way. they seem determined to try and replicate something similar to the IPL/BB, and the existing T20 comp didnt satisfy them.
the only good thing about covid was that it forced the cancelation of the 100,
but unfortunately the ECB had apparently invested about -u200 million in this commercialised thrash about, so they probably be desperate to stage it next year.
btw what are these anti siphoning laws in cricket?

When pay TV became big and sport was being bought up the Gov made laws
that certain sports events like home Test cricket, the Olympics etc
must be shown on FTA
