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

[federer.reddevil]

Looks like broadcasters are main focus on the football event rather then cricket now.

Now its FIFA WC everybodys focus is no football. This is the event that is bigger than the Olympics. Pity India never makes it.

DD sports live telecast r not cricket?

Only on DD Free Dish

I think current FIFA World Cup media Rights sold by ITW, Sports18 acquires exclusive Rights from them only. even Pre world cup matches on Sony Sports and 1Sports too from ITW.

Viacom 18 has acquired rights from FIFA for Indian Subcontinent and further redistributed, other than India rights, to different broadcasters

Better they sell 1Sports channel and someone buy it and telecast the rights in better quality. Maybe could buy another channel and use the rights coz till now they have the best picture quality of all the sports channels pity they dont go for the big rights

1Sports have nothing except Hero motorcrop sponsored Golf, they have surrender I League Rights too. Now only Fancode can save 1sports if they share sports rights with lex sportel.

Again after ODI World Cup 2023 india Tour West Indies for 8 matches 2 Test, 3 ODI and 3 T20. WI Exclusive media Rights with Fancode.

Even if they get the rights their PQ is so bad that it makes DD Sports look better (w.r.t Sports channels) Saw Sports18 channel during FIFA U17 Womens WC didnt think it had the same clarity as Eurosport have to check during WC how the clarity is.

ITW Sports Global, which had the rights to the bi-lateral series, partnered with its long-standing partner Sony. The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) doesn't have a long-term official media rights partner in India. The ITW and Sony partnership is touted as one of its kind in the sports broadcasting space.

In future more boards will adopt this strategy where they sell rights to a company which then sells indivdual series or complete rights to different broadcasters. This way board geta required revenue and even broadcasters get to choose select series for which they want to buy the rights
