Looking at the full NZ Cricket international match schedule for the upcoming summer, feel like TVNZ are making a mistake only showing T20 internationals on TVNZ1 while TVNZ Duke airs the tests and ODIs.
I get that they probably don’t want to pre-empt The Chase/One News/Seven Sharp block if possible. However, surely TVNZ should be capitalising on a likely once-in-a-generation opportunity to have the rights to all NZ home internationals by airing as much of it as possible on their main channel? Alternatively, couldn’t the tests and ODIs air on both TVNZ1 and TVNZ Duke with coverage switching to the latter when needed?
