Cricket broadcasting rights

[Sporran123]

I would like to engage with Jonathan Licht....MD of Skysports. This is with regard to 20 over cricket. In 1998 I corresponded with Roger Moody who wrote to me stating no interest in my 20 over concept, "For the foreseeable future." I had also written to The ECB and The MCC at that time. As we all know the 20 over game was launched from The MCC in 2002 and the rest is history. I have the next generation of the 20 over format and am ready to take it to market. Perhaps Jonathan will have more foresight than Roger Moody and engage with me with the broadcasting rights on the table....

Cheers,

Iain

As a cricket fan I have no idea what you are on about, are you trying to claim you invented the 20 over format idea and now you have a new idea ?

If you are in the position to offer those rights, I'll think you'd probably run into him at the MCC...

The gentleman concerned appears to have a profile on LinkedIn.

Not sure about that...

"Stuart Robertson, the marketing manager of the ECB, proposed a 20-over-per-innings game, invented by New Zealand cricketer Martin Crowe, to county chairmen in 2001 and they voted 11–7 in favour of adopting the new format."
