In response to the increasing dominance of franchise cricket, the International Cricket Council (ICC) has approved the creation of a committee aimed at balancing these leagues with the international cricket calendar. The Indian Premier League (IPL) currently occupies two months of the calendar, while several other leagues, such as SA20, ILT20, and BBL, are also vying for players' attention. The ICC expressed concerns that this trend could jeopardize international cricket, particularly affecting nations like the West Indies, where players are opting for lucrative T20 contracts over national representation. Notable players, including Nicholas Pooran and Heinrich Klaasen, have already made the shift away from international cricket to focus on franchise opportunities. The ICC's Future Tours Programme (FTP) may face disruptions due to the proliferation of these leagues. In the past, ICC committees have suggested implementing caps on the number of leagues players can join to ensure they fulfill national obligations, highlighting the ongoing struggle between franchise and international cricket commitments.
