ReplyDeleteI don't know who's idea is this ?
The consumers having dth are the sufferers who have to activate the both channels for viewing single tournament.
That stupid thing should be avoided this time.
Yes I agree with Eugine.
ReplyDeletebut! ESPN STAR are the biggest sports network in whole Asia and it is good that they are showing the live matches on their network. It will be telecast in all the cricket playing nations with the help of local broadcaster. That is why they have paid USD 2 Billion to get the rights for live telecast. They are also pushing the tempo by telecasting world cup related program. Any who dont want to make money out of cricket :)
I am eager to watch live cricket matches on ESPN STAR Cricket
