Inspired by England’s Hundred, which attracted massive private funding, key investors are already eyeing the Melbourne Renegades, up for full ownership by 2027–28. While some teams like Hobart and Perth are open, others including Sydney Sixers and Brisbane Heat are holding off. Crucially, Cricket Australia retains control over player salaries, media rights, and international scheduling—and can approve or reject bids. The goal? To boost the league’s future while safeguarding grassroots cricket and ensuring every team has a shot at growth.
