Falling between the silos
After years at the top, Australian cricket appears to have lost its way, but all is not lost, writes Greg Baum in the Sunday Herald
When the Argus investigation into what has gone wrong with Australian cricket finishes its work, it will surely conclude that the pyramid that has served the sport so well for more than a century is crumbling.

This is how the cricket landscape looks to many who work in it.
