Reductions in a contract are a touchy issue with players. Reductions need to be viewed in conjunction with the annual base price. If the base price is low, fight to keep reductions out of the deal as it’s a double whammy for the player. The Reductions clause should also be carefully worded and should not be format and league agnostic as again this is detrimental. You need to have a clear view of how much your player is likely to play in each format and then work on it accordingly.
