I am an Australian living in England and can say from talking to many sports fans here there has been a marked improvement in facilities, training and interest in sport. Being honest I would hate to say that was due in part to T20, as I'm not a fan. But investment and changes in structure have helped (I am told).... I have been informed that cricket here during the nineties was played like it was in the stone age, a very stuff old boys network kind of thing! I have also been lucky to watch old cricket form the nineties and yes, most of those listed were decent players but are we comparing that England side to the star studied team we had with Australia, this is the team that got me into cricket and let's be honest Cricket in Australia is a lifestyle and huge part of life to most. In England it's a minority sport and played by few?
