Rating will be indication of viewership.

Overall cricket viewership itself was in decline. Than you got people cord cutting cable/dth who are now consuming sports on digital platforms. Consumer's viewing pattern has changed. Broadcasters needs to rethink before making heavy investment on broadcasting rights. They cannot bet on regional markets. Remember TV penetration is high in certain regions is because politician gave away TVs for free. They didn't gave subscription. If these people had money for subscription. They wouldn't be expecting free TVs from politicians.
