Former Test wicketkeeper Brad Haddin says privatising the Big Bash League would benefit Australian cricket. Australian Cricketers' Association president Greg Dyer also believes Cricket Australia should revisit the concept of privatisation and use the windfall to shore up the future of Test and first-class cricket. Haddin said the BBL, which is in its fifth season and enjoying record crowds and television audiences, was something people around the world wanted to be a part of. "If we can get a couple of those Indian buyers interested in some of our franchises it can only benefit Australian cricket," Haddin told Sky Sports Radio. "I think Cricket Australia have done a wonderful job in the course of the Big Bash to get it to this point and have a product that we can sell in the open market. It will be interesting to see what happens with that because I think the Big Bash is only going from strength to strength." Dyer said the value of the BBL had soared, meaning it was a good time to privatise the eight franchises. "I would encourage either a complete privatisation or a partial privatisation of the franchises," Dyer told Fairfax Media.
