Christchurch, Nov 29 (PTI) The assortment of T20 leagues, including the cash-rich IPL has entirely changed the landscape of cricket with more and more players inclined to forego their national contracts in lure of lucrative overseas deals, feels New Zealand pacer Tim Southee.
Three New Zealand players — Trent Boult, Martin Guptill and Jimmy Neesham — have so far given up their central contract to play in different leagues across the globe.
“It has been an interesting last few months where the landscape of cricket has changed, quicker than most thought,” Southee said ahead of Wednesday’s third ODI against India.
