Sports Channels in India (Current & Upcoming) - Broadcast Rights, General Discussion, News & Updates

[The Lonelier Island]

John Dykes is hosting his flagship show “The JD Show" on Disney+ Singapore post the Fox sports (prev ESPN) channels shut down by Disney.

And in India, his new show on Sony.
Why didn’t Star on TV or Hotstar/Disney+ on OTT pick it up in India? They already have indirect rights to JD show via Disney+ SG?

How are they supposed to air ball by ball cricket highlights than?

Why None of the sports channels telecast the WTA tournaments? I can see any new sensation
like Emma Raducanu only at the time of Grandslam.

more than icc, ipl or bcci right having Australia rights and England rights are more interesting and entertaining which Sony has specially when India tours

Yeah man Australia and England tours are on of the best tours for viewing experience. That English, aussie crowd chants, That high clear picture quality( no fog-dust, pollution like sub continent). Also sometimes sky sports graphics are used by Sony sports which make experience even better.

We Indians say that but for Aussies and the English what they would love is to watch their teams coming to the subcontinent and watch them play and try to beat us in our conditions.

It is just that we see so many matches at home that we dont understand the value of it whereas we travel to England and Australia once in 3 years we feel that it is great

Seems you are new to cricket world.
Aus , Eng don't care about sub continent pitches, just for cricket calendar they are travelling.
If you see the pitches in aus, sa, eng , the bounce will good, no slow tracks, seam / swing will be there. But in sub continent pitches, most of the pitches are slow .
in Sub continent pitches, if you see, Indian is far better than other countries pitches, still needs to improve.
BCCI took some steps 2000s to make the pitch at par, but the result is not in favour then seems leave it.
Now BCCI focusing on money only and not thinking about quality of the cricket, forcing us to watch foreign cricket.

that is home advantage bro Aus, SA and Eng use seam/swing tracks especially against subcontinent opposition to their advantage whereas the subcontinent teams prepare spinning wickets to help our spinners. Do you see Ashwin taking 5fers in SA or Eng or Aus, no, same way you dont see the Indian seamers taking wickets in a bunch in subcontinent conditions unless the ball starts reversing that happens when the wicket becomes really abrasive and make use of the old ball.

So it is literally different challenges in different conditions that doesnt mean you can say it is better there.
