2 Nations 1 Obsession was quite a good (two part) doco by Fox.
Certainly changed my attitude towards the Indians.
Two Nations was produced by the Cricket Australia media unit I believe, who did the Ashes Forged in Fire doco last year.
Guys my point was (sorry if it was missed) Nine’s coverage was heavily criticised for years now, Crawley and McNamara were still at the helm for a lot of it and certainly when previous set-up was done.
Barham on the other hand, produced critically lauded coverage for Ten’s BBL.
Oh but it’s not on Nine now, so it’s fine. 
Both those produced by Dickson Films, same people behind the various AFL Grand Final docos.
Don’t understand the need for a ‘pissing contest’ - determining which coverage is ‘better’ is such a subjective thing based on personal preferences that you can’t have an ‘objective’ answer.
It’s been confirmed Hindi commentary will be available on Kayo for the rest of Australia v India test series, starting with the second test in Perth from today.
Interesting that Fox Cricket and Cricket Australia are using the Perth Stadium name and not naming rights holder Optus Stadium.
This differs to Fox Footy during the AFL season. They would reference the Optus Stadium name.
Allan Border commentating for the first time this test series on Fox Cricket.
Maybe FOX doesn’t want to use the Optus name because they are part owned by competitor Telstra.
During the cricket season it is officially known as Perth Stadium. While during the AFL season it is officially known as Optus Stadium.
Same on Seven. Mel McLaughlin accidently stuffed it up saying “Optus Stadium” before immediately correcting and eye rolling.
Seems strange. Any idea why this is the case?
Someone forgot to tell Optus Stadium…

Or is it CA having a whinge about not having Optus as a sponsor anymore and looking to replace them with another telecommunication partner?
Doubt there’s anything official about it other than a CA directive.
Maybe Optus only paid the AFL for naming rights
All international cricket matches at the venue will use the Perth Stadium moniker because of Cricket Australia’s contractual obligations, which prevent stadium names being used.
The only way Optus Stadium name can be used for cricket matches is when the telco becomes a CA sponsor again.
