I think the difference could be that YuppTV has Hindi commentary, while Fox/Kayo has English commentary?

Yupp tv could have both.

How is it possible that both Kayo and YuppTV have rights? Does Fox know about this?

Fox better not advertise it as exclusive.

This is why YuppTV probably have Hindi rights only.

Just watch them.

Did anyone go on to the IPL website and look at the teams? If you notice down the very bottom Disney+ must have bort the Indian streaming service Hotstar which has now been renamed Disney+ Hotstar.

Just an FYI don’t click on the Disney + Hotstar sponsor advertisment :joy:

Hotstar is now part of Disney+ after last year’s merger of Disney and 21st Century Fox (the ultimate owner of Hotstar).

RIP Deano

Both Fox and Nines NRL broadcasts paid tribute to Deano as did the Front Bar however the IPL coverage hasn’t had an tribute not even a mention of his passing which is disappointing especially with everything he did for cricket in the Asia region.

After performing CPR on Dean Jones hours earlier, Brett Lee returned to commentary box last night alongside former NZ all-rounder Scott Styris. It must have been really hard for both of them.

WBBL fixture released- please explain why the Sydney Sixers have the most FTA games when their fans can actually go to the games with every match being played in Sydney?! Sometimes FTA really doesn’t make sense

My concern is with Sydney Showground and North Sydney Oval hosting 4-5 matches over one weekend, including three on the same day. I am not sure if the pitch can handle that.
