A T20 cricketing revolution is officially underway in New Zealand.
The governing body is backing the proposed NZ20 privatised franchise league as a preferred option for the domestic game next season, which already has major association and players' association support.
NZC say the decision is in principle only.
Players Association CEO Heath Mills told Mike Hosking the level of interest in the competition and potential teams has been encouraging.
