Interesting tonight’s BBL/WBBL season preview has a normal 7 watermark on the bottom right rather than on the top right. I wonder if this show was taped on Sunday after the player draft?

People might disagree, but one can’t deny Seven’s commitment and effort for their cricket, fees and contract aside, for all the issues a couple of years ago between them and CA and a perception perhaps they didn’t want it or all of it even (possibly differing views from various divisions at SWM)… Also speaks to Seven Sport’s legacy in sports broadcasting in Australia. Yes vs Fox Cricket and the like. IMO.
2018 was a long time ago now, there’s been multiple management and board shake-ups at all parties (bar TA)… I think Seven & Nine and CA & TA have all moved on, cemented and are now fully realising their current and most likely (for now) long-term major/nationally-appealing/summer sporting futures.

Yeah was recorded post-draft in the same studio.
They really shouldn’t be using Trent for BBL stuff, given he is GM of the Thunder.

During commentary he mostly does Test doesn’t he?

Yeah but either way he’s involved here.
Why did it air this early? Seems like such an odd choice given WBBL doesn’t start until end of October & BBL until December.
Could of aired/worked well after the last WT20 vs NZ on 24th Sep which would be around 1 month before the start of WBBL

I guess Seven wanted to use the lead in from the AFL to promote their cricket coverage.
