From pints to performance: regulating the modern cricketer—Sports Litigation Alert
Partner Joel Leigh and associate Megan Knowles have authored an article for Sports Litigation Alert exploring the increasing regulation of professional cricketers and how the modern game's performance-focused culture is reshaping expectations both on and off the field.
It appears that a data-driven, 'high performance culture' has now reached cricket's shores, and that, to some extent, the game is playing catch-up.
The article is available to view at Sports Litigation Alert by subscription only.
