LONDON: Surrey director of cricket Alec Stewart has demanded a redistribution of the money the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) receives for allowing its players to take part in the IPL.
“We have discovered that the ECB have been receiving 10 percent of the overall contract a player gets from IPL for a number of years and this year it is 20 percent,” the former England captain was quoted as saying by ESPNCricinfo.
“Should the ECB be keeping that? Or should that money come back to the county, who are the ones who miss out?
“I personally believe all that money should come back to the county if you are not an ECB-contracted player because of the money that has been invested.”
