Depends what TV Channel it is. Like Channel 9 Australia always have all those gizmo stuff no matter who was playing. But for less wealthy channels such as the one showing the AUS-BAN series then probaly not.

Why is Nimbus still producing pictures for the Abu-Dhabi tournament ?
I suppose the rights were sold to ZEE.
ESPN-STAR was disqualified on technical grounds.
Now what about ZEE ? They made all those claims that they have their own production team.Where is it then ?
This is utter foul play by Subhash Chandra.

ESPN/STAR have proved that they are the best when it comes to cricket telecast in India. They have the best production values and the best goddamned commentary team by far. But they always seem to bid somewhat lower than the eventual winners. I mean why bid at all when you know that some upstart is going to outbid you by far?

Actually ESS has relied to much on technical aspects of the game.
They might have felt that ZEE and Nimbus would be disqualified.
I really don't understand when BCCI disqualified ESS from the bidding process for technical reasons.

I have a feeling that there's a bit of politics also behind the ESPN/Star disqualification. They seem to be out of favour with the BCCI for a few years now... for whatever reason.
