Should Sports Networks have Regional Channels?

  • YES, Absolutely! I'd love to watch the content and hear the commentary in my preferred language.

  • NO, Language feeds are enough. (I don't care about programming / graphics in regional language)

Does Star have anything live to telecast before restart of IPL? (India related) Probably they have learned their lessons and won't put all eggs in one basket now. Last Live event related to India was AFC Cup Group Stage. Next is probably IPL.

Lol.. Today itself they had CPL, One Championships, US Open and F1 Dutch GP...

And for your question of Indian related.. They are the only broadcaster who had invested in all the Indian sports... PBL, PKL, ISL, Indian Hockey all are invested by them not others.

Look only buying rights are not enough .as a broadcaster u have to promote it ,u have to reach to new audience
I still remember they dint even care bout hocky world cup and showed it on star sports select 1
Yes they promoted pkl well ;i still think they can do so much better with isl
 
I still don't get the point of not airing US Open on main channels. Atleast air US Open highlights over same old Cricket highlights. They have got FIH Rights. Have you seen any best of type hockey highlights air recently? Even after our team won medal. I have seen no hockey content. Or even air highlights of Khelo India.
 
US Open, F 1, CPL aren't related to India. People don't even read these days. I wrote specifically about India because they were so focused on rights related to India. By the way about AFC World cup qualifier rights, they don't have it for non India matches. I asked Hotstar to telecast Japan vs Oman WCQ. It told me that they don't have rights for it.
