THE VICTORIAN Country Cricket League Melbourne Country Week is looking into potential changes to the country week format.
The main ideas up for discussion have been a preference to trial several aspects of international 50-over cricket rules with fielding circles and matches finishing once a result has been achieved.
The concept of dividing at least the top two divisions into pools with a cross-over semi-final on the Thursday prior to Friday's final.
And finally, matches in the three divisions to be played in particular areas of Melbourne - to save time and travelling costs.
