If sports 18 buys BCCI rights from next season, they need bunch of channels like SS, to show the BCCI international, domestic crickets, apart from SA cricket , T20 leagues and other sports.
Only If Zee/Disney strategic partnership fails for BCCI media Rights, Sports18 Acquiring BCCI Rights possible as Gulf countries invested huge money on Viacom18/Reliance Group.
