Seven will kick of 2019 with a beauty thanks to BBL.
BBL - Stars v Renegades - 655k
Hopman Cup - 285k
Ambulance Australia rpt - 324k
Big Bash double header today right? But I assume only primetime is on seven?
The Brisbane Heat vs Sydney Sixers are also on Seven.

could a mod please put this into a POLL
Out of curiosity, which do you think provides the best āleg upā for Q1 programming?
-Summer of cricket (now on Seven)
-Summer of tennis (now on Nine)
NB/ Also consider: cricket has 5 tests over a couple of months, each for max 5 afternoons with 1 including prime time; plus BBL prime time on many nights. Tennis has prime time tournaments in January with a grand slam of 14 consecutive prime times incl final on night before Q1 traditionally starts.
Iām intrigued as the Aus Open was said by Seven to be the best platform and I guess MKRās ratings helped show that to an extent and Nine this year also admitted that. But to me cricket, with its bigger broadcast hours in total could be argued to be more premium.

It will be a very competitive night with the new season of Iām a Celebrity against live BBL. Seven should win the night especially with the late BBL game in Perth.

Nine will dominate day and night with its first ever Australian Open telecast. I think there will be some first-time viewers curious to see how Nine will cover the first Grand Slam tournament of the year. However, the new-look Today will narrowly lose to Sunrise.

For the first time and possibly only time this AO, the late session may outrate the night session, with No.1 Djokovic up later (if him and Tsonga put on a clinic ratings will be massive) after Serena Williamsā match who people have gone off. However, Nine will still win the night easily.
