What way is Cricket run in England ?

Is it me or do the ECB seem to run cricket as a private company?

I mean the prices for test matches plus the lack of exposure on terrestrial television, there is going to be a group of youngsters who will have hardly had any exposure to the game.

There was a survey carried out last year among some children and out of the three sports events that day the FIFA World Cup match between France and South Africa,  the Wimbledon tennis match involving Andy Murray and a One Day International between England and Australia guess which one the children didn't know about.

There are repercussions for cricket as a whole, with the lack of exposure and prices being high there are going to be less bums on seats. There are also the fees that have to be paid to the ECB for staging Test matches, they have also been reduced.  All this in addition to the ridiculous scheduling of the T20 matches, cramming in more than necessary. How are families meant to afford this.

At the end of the day Cricket in England is going to have to suffer, when there is less money to distribute among the counties which in return will reduce the schemes and initiatives to future players
