Although the current sample is fairly small the trend seems clear that serious cricket fans would welcome A-Team matches televised. I wonder whether the 20/20 market segment would also be just as enthusiastic?

My research on the net suggests television broadcasters prefer covering international fixtures rather than domestic fixtures so I'm sure there must be some serious pressure to make 20/20 into an international competition. However, I get the feeling, from what I've read, that the cricket boards who are strongly influenced by the domestic clubs want more television coverage for the clubs to strengthen their domestic competitions. I'll be interested to see how my theory pans out as my lobbying proceeds.
