After years of trying, it looks like 2026 could finally be the year European cricket gets a franchise league. What has changed to finally get the ETPL over the line? Timothy Abraham of the BBC, the journalist who broke the recent story on high profile investors coming on board, joins the pod. He gets into the detail of how the league might look.
This is part one of a two-part series. This weekend, Ally will join Nathan to pick through the league's benefit (or otherwise) to Irish cricket.
