    James Hird return to Essendon: yay or nay? (UPDATE: Hird confirms he wants the job)

    Fall and Fall of Big Bash

    It’s less about boycotting the player and more that they are taking themselves off the radar in Australia. They may be fine with that if they earn enough but people just won’t know who they are or care. We don’t have the same cricket culture as India where it is all about the star players...
