Two windows for IPL going forward? 6 month league? Wild ideas, but I do though agree that bilateral T20's should be scrapped immediately. International T20s should be all about the World Cup. On that front, I would also scrap bilateral ODI's. ODI World Cup should be a "once in 4 year" event, T20 World Cup should be a "once in 2 years" event. BCCI should allow players to play among other franchise leagues (with rules/conditions). This way, franchise cricket becomes the engine of the sport, and international cricket derives all the passion that had been lost in recent times.

#IPLMediaRights
TV goes at Rs 23,575 cr
Digital goes at Rs 20,500 cr

Total: Rs 44,075 cr for 410 matches. For packages A & B.

IPL will have two separate broadcasters.

Viacom18 (voot) bags the digital right in India.
Sony Star Sports bags the TV rights.

Eagerly waiting for Extraaaa Innings T20, hopefully Sony brings back this epic pre match analysis show with all the old people like Sameer Kochhar, Gaurav and other female hosts.

And not to forget their epic promos....

I doubt. It's still called as digital platform whether live tv or not. So Jio will have rights to sue Sony if that happens.

I'm ready to watch Sooryavamsham for nth time if it compensates me with the matches. Hopefully they don't just go with Sony six and stop the Sony Max.

Sony Live TV channels also works on JioTV, I guess they'll stop it too.
That means I need voot subscription.

Mine is expiring on 2nd July, I used most of it - 2nd Part of IPL 2021, T20 World Cup, IPL 2022 and various home bilateral series, various Marvel movies + Multiverse of Madness (will be streaming from June 22nd) :teeth:
