Ahead of the 2024 T20 World Cup, Netflix is understood to have approached USA Cricket about a documentary following the national team.
A majority of community-elected directors are understood to have been unwilling to take it forward, and their reasons have not been publicly established.
The project would have had to clear ACE's commercial rights and the ICC's tournament rights, which is the kind of complexity an experienced sports administration is equipped to handle.
The United States went on to beat Pakistan and reach the Super Eight, a run that a documentary could have taken to audiences well beyond cricket's existing followers.
