Update on the National Technology Levy
In response to community feedback, New Zealand Cricket has made the decision to suspend the introduction of the National Technology Levy for the 2025–26 season.
The Cricket Central app will still be launched ahead of the season and will be funded by NZC through its existing Community Cricket budget. NZC remains committed to building digital tools that serve the needs of the game and this approach allows players, clubs and whānau to experience the app firsthand and provide feedback before any future levy is introduced.
The app will bring together scoring, draws, statistics, team management and communications into a single mobile platform, designed to simplify and enhance the community cricket experience.
