I just want 10 back

Yes. I full acknowledge that 10 was BBL, my point was the cross promotion by both nine/ten of cricket as a whole product.
The way in which both networks put cricket before the network, reviews of BBL and test etc within the coverage.
Cricket won, cause of the networks working together, very similar to Ten/Nine with the AFL coverage.

Cricket: Broadcasters’ payment due but unlikely to arrive
Nine, is signalling its willingness to hopefully get Test cricket back at what would presumably be a reduced price.
“Of course we’d always be interested in having a discussion if a discussion’s there to be had,” chief executive Hugh Marks said at the weekend. “It’s a massive driver of revenue and audience across December and January. It is Australia’s national sport.”
Word is that Marks is most interested in Tests, which have minimal clashes with the tennis.

Herald Sun and Daily Telegraph are both reporting that Seven and Fox Sports are likely to pay Cricket Australia only part of their instalments due today ($25 million for Seven, $33 million for Fox Sports). It is the networks’ way of sending a message to Cricket Australia that they don’t believe they are going to get the value they are contracted to receive this summer.

UPDATE: Seven made its partial payment today, then declared it would be their final one of the year and called for CA to agree to an independent expert to come in and assess what is a fair recalibration of the rights based on the expected schedule.

ABC Grandstand now reporting of the part payment from Seven.
Does this mean I can buy a house, walk in and go, Nar it’s not worth it here is half the money instead??

If the contract said that the house had walls, but yours didn’t I guess you could?

Will be interesting to see if Seven uses their new font for an updated graphics like they did with the news graphics.
Might not happen though because how Seven wants to terminate so why make new graphics if they will only show Women’s Internationals and the WBBL?
Speaking of the WBBL, we still don’t have a schedule! About a month to go until the WBBL kicks off!- maybe the beef between CA and Seven might be playing a role in this too?

I wonder who will be on the coverage this week. I know at least Erin Holland will be part of the coverage.
I wonder if they will be calling the game from a studio?

Maybe, Andy Maher is in Melbourne, not sure where Lisa Sthalekar and Julia Price live. Jason Richardson lives in Melbourne (although I’d hope he goes no-where near the microphone).
Holly Ferling did a bit for Seven here and there last year and she is Brisbane based
Julia Price is Hobart based whereas Lisa is Sydney based
You’d think that Ferling/Holland/Abbey Holmes/Way will be boundary/on-site.
