SPEAKERS AND PANELLISTS

MCC is delighted to be welcoming some of the foremost names in the world of cricket on 7-8 June, people who influence the game both on the field of play and off it.
 
There will be four core subject matters: a Global Overview featuring speakers from Boston Consulting Group and World Cricketers' Association, a session on Is Cricket Cool? exploring how fans see the modern game, a debate on Franchise Cricket and finally the rise of Women’s Cricket.
 
There will also be mini sessions covering cricket’s social impact, sustainability, cricket bats and balls in the women’s game. All sessions promise to be both fascinating and insightful and the attendees below will be at the heart of the discussion.
