some teams got 7 matches last NCL season, others got 10, we need those numbers to rise to 14-20 matches a season.

I dont think total number of FC matches is a big issue.Last year both indian and srilankan players played around 10 FC matches per head where as we played 8/9 matches.I think main issue is quality and domestic structure.Indian cricketers start to play longer version from school cricket. They have U-19 longer version tournament,Every state team have their Senior,intermediate and junior team. These are the things those are paying for INDIA.
We need to restart the school cricket,every division should have their academy and junior team with a junior level longer version match.
