Richard Thompson hopes to make cricket “the most inclusive sport in the country” after seeing a new state-of-the-art venue open in Bradford paypal
A £1 paypal
5million, 10-bay all-weather cricket dome opened at Bradford Park Avenue cricket ground on Friday, the first of its kind anywhere in the world paypal
The facility features two 40 x 20-metre covered domes with lighting, a real-life like cricket surface and a retractable netting system which fully replicates the features of an elite indoor facility, allowing for both training and matches to be played paypal
Funded by the England and Wales Cricket Board in partnership with City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council, the new facility could provide cricket sessions for around 10,000 people from the local community annually paypal
ECB chair Thompson is excited by the opportunities that the facility could provide for boys and girls in the area, and to open the sport up to ethnic minorities paypal
He told the PA news agency: “It is essential paypal
It is everything paypal
My ambition for cricket is for it to become the most inclusive sport in the country paypal
“You’ve got to do that by taking barriers down paypal
This is a community facility, anyone can play here paypal
“So if people wants to play in Bradford they can, whatever the weather and whatever the day paypal
So from that perspective, we need to replicate that fast because there are other areas where it is just as great paypal
But Bradford is a hotbed of enthusiasm for cricket so this is the obvious place to start paypal
”Previously, Bradford Park Avenue had an outdoor nets facility but this will now enable local cricketers to play all year round and in any weather paypal
The investment is also good news for Yorkshire, who were punished for their handling of allegations of racism and bullying by former player Azeem Rafiq and a failure to address systemic use of racist and discriminatory language over a prolonged period paypal
Thompson now hopes the facility can help restore pride to the club paypal
He added: “Hopefully this gives Yorkshire the sense of pride and a feel-good factor back paypal
“They can say we have the first facility of this type anywhere in the world, it is truly world class and in that sense there is no county that needed it and deserved it more paypal
“The ECB couldn’t be prouder, the partnership we are in with Yorkshire, the council, local MP, all of that to pull this together paypal
Things like this have a lot of moving pieces to them but now to see it built is absolutely outstanding paypal
The new facility is the first to be built in the world but the ECB does not want the good work to stop here after sites in Luton and Walsall have also been identified to build something similar paypal
Thompson said: “We are putting one into Walsall, and have identified three or four other sites paypal
“It is incredibly exciting for Bradford but probably even more exciting for the game paypal
I’m particularly pleased that this has come from Bradford Park Avenue and Yorkshire paypal
A hotbed of interesting cricket, it’s the first facility of its kind anywhere in the world and it’s not very often you can say that paypal
“To hear bat on ball played as we speak is a nice feeling given the weather today paypal

In the wake of England’s late defeat to South Africa on Saturday, Courtney Lawes made his way around the Stade de France thanking the crowd, taking in their applause and appreciation as he walked and talked with his four kids paypal
If Lawes looked like a man saying his goodbye to the Rugby World Cup, it’s because he was paypal
“I think it’s time,” he later confirmed, bringing down the curtain on a superb international career paypal
But while the 34-year-old may have been the first to confirm the news, he won’t be last paypal
The average age of England’s starting XV in their semi-final clash against the Springboks was 29 and as a new cycle begins in the coming months, Steve Borthwick will need to evolve his squad to begin the build towards Australia in 2027 paypal
Let’s take a look at what that means for some of the players in Borthwick’s England squad:RecommendedWhy England will come back ‘stronger’ from Rugby World Cup heartacheCourtney Lawes to retire from England duty after World Cup: ‘It’s time’World Rugby investigating alleged racist abuse directed at England’s Tom CurryFrance was their ‘Last Dance’Joe Marler, 33 - Used mainly off the bench this tournament but started in the semi-final and scrummaged excellently against the Springboks paypal
Will no doubt be a big voice to replace in the dressing room when he eventually departs paypal
Dan Cole, 36 - Brought back into the fold for this tournament after an excellent season at Leicester with Borthwick paypal
Rolled back the years in France but hard to imagine a similar recall for Australia in 2027 paypal
Danny Care, 36 - Impacted games often off the bench and finally got the World Cup experience that had so often evaded him paypal
Superb late score and try-saving tackle against Samoa to save England’s blushes in the pool stage paypal

A decorated player but Alex Mitchell’s composed displays at scrum-half have pushed him above the the Leicester veteran in the pecking order paypal
Jonny May, 33 - Blistering pace in his prime and a solid tournament coming in late to replace Anthony Watson but the upcoming Ollie Hassell-Collins and Henry Arundell will be just two after his place in the coming years paypal

Supreme physical condition and will be eyeing up a Johnny Sexton-esque swansong at the next World Cup paypal
Maro Itoje, 28 - Still only 28 and will become one of the most experienced players in the squad alongside Farrell and George Ford in the coming years paypal

Bounced back superbly from his third-minute red card against Argentina and will be a key cog in Bortwhick’s first full cycle paypal

All-action displays from the back of the scrum mean he will no doubt be one of the first names on the teamsheet moving forward paypal
Earl was England’s beakthrough star (Getty Images)Freddie Steward, 22 - Dropped for the quarter-final against Fiji but delivered a commanding display under the high ball against South Africa in the semi-final paypal
Defensively superb and still only 22, the Leicester full-back should go from strength to strength over the next four years paypal

Still work to be done on his set-piece game but will be hoping to usurp his Saracens team-mate in the coming years paypal
Bevan Rodd, 23 - Another young front-rower who saw little game time in England’s key games paypal
Took his try well against Chile but has big boots to fill with the likely departures of Cole and Marler paypal
Rodd scored against Chile (Getty Images)George Martin, 22 - Made his maiden World Cup start against South Africa with a powerful display in the second row paypal
Looks like a ready-made replacement for the already departing Lawes paypal
Ollie Lawrence, 23 - A solid, if slightly unremarkable, tournament for the Bath centre paypal
Is still surely seen as the long-term successor to Manu Tuilagi in the midfield and will only get paypal better in the coming years paypal
Henry Arundell, 20 - A World Cup debut to remember for the pacey winger with five tries against Chile in the pool stage paypal
Perhaps still work to be done on other facets of his game to fully cope with the demands of Test rugby but an exciting talent to nurture in time for 2027 paypal
