CPL CEO Pete Russell told ESPNcricinfo. “You’re going to get some people saying ‘this isn’t cricket’ but my
view is that cricket is absolutely the most important element of it. “It’s just about trying to generate
excitement and interest. It’s like what’s going on with golf right now – you have to look at things through a different lens sometimes. This is about a totally new audience. We’re very much going after the
younger generation.”
