Losing interest in Cricket.
I'm not sure if it's just me, but Cricket Australia has lost me to the game.
In Summers past I would be going to domestic one day games, shield games, then the ODIs and Test Matches , now I barely take a interest in it apart from when the Ashes rolls around.
The BBL doesn't interest me , likewise the 20/20 concept in general.
I didn't even realise Aus were playing the Wackys in the ODI format, until someone mentioned it online. I guess that's a combination of the game being punted to Foxtel and a distinct lack of marketing in the game , and some shit house scheduling (No ODIs in Sydney, WTAF) contributes to this.

Lack of FTA availability of ODIs is a big issue.
Following the same path to irrelevance as Rugby Union.

Good to see you, BA.
I have to also admit that I had no idea the JAMODIs were on.
As for losing interest in the great game - NEVER!!
