Scott Weenink: NZ Cricket CEO on the potential of a New Zealand team joining the Big Bash league - The Mike Hosking Breakfast

Could a New Zealand-based team join the Big Bash T20 cricket competition? 

NZC governing body chief executive Scott Weenink says they are investigating whether joining the Australian league is viable. 

Cricket Australia is mulling over expansion options – Singapore, New Zealand, and Canberra have been deemed candidates. 

Weenink told Mike Hosking they’ve been in talks for about a year about the potential of adding a men’s and women’s team to the Big Bash. 

If it were to happen, he says it wouldn’t be at the expense of Super Smash, as it’s important to have a strong domestic competition in New Zealand as well.
