I heard during interval of one of the South Asian Games on TV that CWAB ( check spelling = the players' association of former cricketers) had said that when National Cricket League was first introduced back in 2000, we used to play 10 longer version matches a year.

Now, in the year 2009, we play even less number of longer version matches a year.

And obviously, our national players get to play even less number of longer version domestic matches a year because they're picked for the national team so early in their career.
