Ivestigating Allegations of Match-Fixing in T20 CricketGuest: Jeremy Zakis Summary: John Bachelor and Jeremy Zakis examine a potential match-fixing scandal involving a T20 cricket match between Canada and New Zealand from February 2026,. Allegations surfaced after Canada exhibited unusual bowling and batting styles, including a high rate of "no balls" that granted New Zealand easy runs. Zakis explains that the short format of T20 makes it easier to fix than a five-day match because the outcome is decided in a much smaller, more controllable window of time. While the investigation is ongoing to determine if the team's poor performance was legitimate or corrupt, a finding of guilt would represent the first time in cricket history that an entire side was found complicit in such a scheme,

3. Cricket Corruption and Pitch InjuriesInvestigations are ongoing into a T20 cricket match held on February 17th between Canada and New Zealand. The International Cricket Council (ICC) and the Canadian Cricket Board are looking into allegations of match-fixing after New Zealand won by eight wickets despite not being significantly stronger than the Canadian team. Suspicion arose due to Canada's "weird" batting and bowling styles, and while no one has been cleared, a police investigation is expected because match-fixing is typically tied to financial gain in betting rings.In a separate incident in the Caribbean, the West Indies Championship between Trinidad and Tobago and the Leeward Islands was completely abandoned due to a "misbehaving pitch". During the match, a fast ball from Hayden Seals gained unexpected speed and height, striking batter Jeremiah Louie in the helmet. The impact rendered Louieunconscious and required his hospitalization. Because the pitch was in such disrepair—described as having parts as hard as concrete—it was deemed too dangerous to continue. Jeremy emphasizes that cricket is a violent sport; balls moving at 80–90 mph have killed at least three players in the last 40 years despite the use of helmets. 31940

Don Mackinnon: Sports lawyer on the push for New Zealand to have a T20 franchise league

The time is right for New Zealand to join the rest of the world with a privately-backed, franchise Twenty20 league. That's the message from Don Mackinnon, the man standing at the front of the group looking to achieve just that. Some 22 years on from cricket introducing the shortest format, T20 has become the vehicle in which the sport is growing around the world. And, as is the case with sports like football and basketball, strong club-based franchise competitions have proven to be the main driver of that. Led by the Indian Premier League, established in 2008, the franchise game has slowly but surely expanded to all corners of the cricket-playing world. First to India, then England, Australia, Pakistan, the West Indies, South Africa and so on. Even non-cricketing strongholds such as the US, Canada and even Nepal have franchise domestic leagues. The only exception to that is New Zealand. Since the inception of T20 cricket, New Zealand has maintained a domestic competition made up of the six major associations – Auckland, Northern Districts, Wellington, Central Districts, Canterbury and Otago – known as the Super Smash. However, the lack of any franchise-style model has left the Super Smash outdated. Instead of operating as NZ Cricket's (NZC) main driver of revenue, the Super Smash instead operates as a breeding ground for local talent, allowing Kiwi players to develop and step into the Black Caps and White Ferns respectively. And while that might be beneficial for New Zealand's national sides, the Super Smash being left off Sky's new cricket broadcast deal from the start of next summer shows the model, as it stands, is broken. But, led by Mackinnon, a consortium that includes former Black Caps captain Stephen Fleming and NZ Cricket Players' Association boss Heath Mills wants to take New Zealand into the franchise world. The proposed “NZ20″ would involve teams created by the major associations being sold to private owners, and establish a league to be played at the height of the Kiwi summer in January, as early as the start of 2027. It would also provide parity to what has been shown to work around the world. While the format is still to be finalised, the NZ20 would theoretically be a Kiwi-based league providing New Zealand's players the opportunity to play a franchise competition at home. As and when a format is decided, and agreed to by NZ Cricket, the major associations and the players' association, the NZ20 would revolutionise the sport in Aotearoa. Speaking to Weekend Sport with Jason Pine, Mackinnon – the chairman of the NZ20 Establishing Committee – explained that while similar attempts to implement a franchise league in New Zealand haven't materialised, the state of the sport in 2025 has changed that equation. “If we go back a decade, I was on the board of NZ Cricket,” he said. “We looked at setting up a franchise league back in 2013-14. “At the time we didn't think it was viable. But as one highly respected figure put to me, there's never been more money in the international game of cricket at the moment. “So many people around the world are excited by it and investing in it, but New Zealand is not part of that. “I just think the time is right to tweak that model and create something in our domestic league that fans are excited by. The money is there, the interest is there. The timing is perfect.” Naturally, with this kind of expansion, falsehoods have materialised. For a start, Mackinnon dismisses any notion the NZ20 is a “rebel league”, as suggested when first reported. Mackinnon concedes “it would be crazy to do this without the support of NZC”. Earlier this year, the NZ20 Establishing Committee presented the concept to NZC. In turn, two members of the NZC board are also part of the Establishing Committee, at a time when the governing body assesses multiple options as to how to revolutionise the shortest format here. Mackinnon also points out that what the NZ20 intends to do isn't new. Cricketing nations across the globe have implemented the same models, where privately-backed franchises co-exist with national boards to allow T20 to operate as the centrepiece of the domestic season. Those models have provided the blueprint for the NZ20 Establishing Committee to take on board. “What we're looking to do here is not novel,” Mackinnon said. “In actual fact, it's done all around the world. “The better question might be ‘why aren't we?' The South African league, for example, has gone from loss-making to extraordinarily successful. The Caribbean league has done exactly the same. “The Caribbean league is probably the model we've mostly looked at as replicating, in part. It's a relatively small economy, a relatively small talent pool. And yet it is reinvigorating the game in the Caribbean. “Will it be here in 30 years' time? I don't know. But the model is certainly doing great things for the game at the moment. There is absolutely no reason why we can't do it here.” What's more, there is also evidence of Mackinnon's suggestion of franchises having stakes controlled by the major associations, while selling ownership to investors. For example, England's “The Hundred” competition initially involved its franchises being co-owned by the English county cricket sides. However, when put to tender earlier in 2025, hundreds of millions of pounds were raised for the counties to use as they saw fit, including investing in the grassroots. The biggest potential worry for the NZ20 – if successful – is the window in which it would operate. If Mackinnon's suggestion of January eventuates, the NZ20 would clash with Australia's Big Bash League, South Africa's SA20 and the UAE's ILT20. The SA20 and ILT20 are both owned by Indian private equity, while the Big Bash League is almost certain to follow a similar path in seeking outside investment. Naturally, then, that would leave the NZ20 competing for talent, be it local or international. For Mackinnon, though, the priority is ensuring the competition is primarily an outlet for New Zealanders. “We're really conscious of that,” he said. “The first thing is we want to make sure our very best players are playing in it. “Heath [Mills] has been talking a lot to the Daryl Mitchells of this world, the Kane Williamsons – our best players. They are incredibly excited about this as a concept. “First and foremost, you're going to have a young kid playing for Otago, bowling to Finn Allen for example. That's got to be good for the game in New Zealand. “There's an awful lot of really good white ball cricketers playing around the world, not all of them can play in South Africa and Australia. “I have no doubt that there would be the opportunity to supplement squads. They would still be very good, exciting players that would put bums on seats.” However, the NZ20 isn't the only option on the table for NZC. The national body is also undertaking a review, led by Deloitte, to determine which direction it should move in. While a similar, privately-backed franchise model is also on the table – separate from the NZ20 – the biggest potential rival would be for the NZC to seek having at least one side join Australia's Big Bash. While that would mean New Zealand and Australia joining forces – as seen with the Warriors in the NRL, the Breakers in the NBL and Auckland FC and the Wellington Phoenix in the A-League – it would also mean NZC has less influence on how the team could be run. Regardless, Mackinnon, said that while the NZ20 Establishing Committee believes it has the best way forward, it ultimately wants to see what's best for the sport – even if it means NZC moves in another direction. “I'll be the first to applaud NZ Cricket for looking at all of their options, they're doing the right thing,” he said. “If they say that's better for cricket in New Zealand, we will live with that and I will wish that project every success. “It seems to me a competition that's played throughout New Zealand, ideally at holiday venues at the peak of summer, with some of our best players playing, some great international players is better for fans, it's better for players, it's better for our regions, and personally I think it's better for our Black Cap and White Ferns development programmes. “But that's just our opinion. I fully accept that NZ Cricket are looking at all their options – as they should.” LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The hosts made 207 for five – Mark Chapman excelled with 78 off 28 balls and three catches. The visitors were struggling at 93 for six in the 13th over, but a flurry saw them require 16 off the last. Chapman joined Piney to discuss his performance. “It was just one of those days where the ball seemed to find the middle of the bat and you're just enjoying yourselves.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mt Maunganui rain has scuppered the Black Caps chances of reclaiming cricket's Chappell-Hadlee Trophy. Last night's second T20 against Australia was eventually reduced to a nine-over match, but just 2.1 overs were possible before the wet weather returned and the contest had to be abandoned. The Bay Oval is again host for tonight's third and final match of the series. Black Caps coach Rob Walter told Jason Pine that while it's disappointing they don't have a shot at winning back the trophy, there's a lot to learn from the outing. “We'll sort of focus this evening on trying to level up the scores.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Could a New Zealand-based team join the Big Bash T20 cricket competition? NZC governing body chief executive Scott Weenink says they are investigating whether joining the Australian league is viable. Cricket Australia is mulling over expansion options – Singapore, New Zealand, and Canberra have been deemed candidates. Weenink told Mike Hosking they've been in talks for about a year about the potential of adding a men's and women's team to the Big Bash. If it were to happen, he says it wouldn't be at the expense of Super Smash, as it's important to have a strong domestic competition in New Zealand as well.

Regular skipper Mitchell Santner, Will O'Rourke, Finn Allen, Glenn Phillips, Lockie Ferguson and Adam Milne are sidelined, while Kane Williamson's unavailable. Coach Rob Walter told Mike Hosking it's all part of the build-up to the T20 World Cup next year and in the same breath, series against Australia are always ultra-competitive. He says they're taking it one series, one game at a time, but still keeping an eye on what's happening in the future. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A groundbreaking new partnership for New Zealand Cricket, in an effort to keep the country's top players from joining other global T20 franchises. New Zealand Cricket have joined forces with the financial backers of a new franchise in North America's Major League Cricket - a competition that has a value of at least $200 million. The move could help keep leading players and coaches in the Black Caps set-up, instead of becoming global T20 freelancers. CEO Scott Weenink told Mike Hosking they're taking a two-pronged approach. He says this presents an opportunity to diversify their revenue streams into the most lucrative global sporting market, while also creating opportunities for their high performance staff and players. The new team —which is yet to be formally named or have their location confirmed— will debut in the 2027 season. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We started in The Cricketers pub in Cardiff, recording with Melinda Farrell after the Women's Ashes had just finished with three T20s. Two new women's T20 competitions were soon to start in Australia's Big Bash and England's Super League. So we spoke about the start of men's professional T20s in 2003 with Paul Robertson, the man who led that charge. Then we dropped in on journalist Peter Miller to talk T20 evangelism and look at the upcoming 50-over series between Australia and England men. On new recruit Jason Roy: "I think he'll do a pretty good job at the top of the order." This season was originally recorded for the ABC - this is the extended edition, restoring removed material.
