Episode: Scott Weenink: NZ Cricket CEO on the partnership with Major League Cricket
Description: New Zealand Cricket is branching out. They've become the first national body in the code to invest in a franchise T20 league - taking a stake in an expansion team in North America's Major League Cricket. The aim is to keep some of our leading players – and coaches – available for Black Caps duty, instead of opting to effectively become freelancers on the global Twenty20 stage. NZ Cricket CEO Scott Weenink joined Jason Pine to talk about the decision.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
