Bang on. But BCCI with so much money cant even have a good sophisticated app.. Link to comment
Moochad Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 I have seen Windies, England, and Aussies upload so much content including match highlights and interviews on youtube. BCCI does none of that. It seems they are missing out on another source of revenue. maniac 1 Link to comment

Atleast give the fans something for free because they nichodofy every penny for their content anyways. funnily Srilankan cricket has the most watched YouTube video ever in a game and that doesn’t even feature Srilanka .

Bigg Brother Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 BCCI has shyte website. Atleast they can work upon that rather than YouTube. That website is so bad , interface and browsing on that website all too complicated. Looks like website from an ancient era. Teenagers today having blogging sites have better interface than that...

gattaca Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 I still don’t know why folks want to watch ads when watching highlights. BCCI tv has no ads. It’s free and doesn’t sell your information lol. Link to comment

I remember after the 2011 WC there were 1hr+ long video highlights on YT of all the WC games someone uploaded. I would watch Ind vs Aus, Ind vs Pak, and Ind vs SL every week before they got copyright strikes. I think Nidhas trophy final is like taht for SL. maniac 1 Link to comment

So far they have made an estimated amount of 300k from youtube. That is far less than what DK won as prize money for MOM Link to comment

In Australia, the highlights packages by Cricket Australia is top quality. There is actually a lot of Indian content in there too. (only when India is playing in Australia) Link to comment

BCCI has over the air rights and digital rights. The digital rights might restrict them from uploading highlights on YT because Google is a competitor to the digital rights company like Disney etc. The contracts for BCCI are worth in billions compared to few hundred ks profit from YT.

But BCCI can negotiate it that they are free to upload on YT as well. I dont watch American sports, but I can search YT and see highlights for entire NBA and NFL matches uploaded from their official handles. Its also about promoting the sport and brand of Indian cricket/IPL. Imagine foreign people getting exposure to IPL highlights, those are potential viewers. No one outside of India is going to BCCI website Edited January 23 by Moochad Link to comment
zaqw222222 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 I can understand BCCI not uploading latest match highlights on youtube due to rights agreement that they have with STAR but they can upload old matches highlights. Other boards like ECB, CA or WICB uploads highlights of old matches, BCCI can do the same. We do not have any video of Kapil dev breaking Richard Hadlee record of most wickets. They can also do Anil Kumble top 10 wickets or Javagal Srinath top 10 wickets. They are so many great batting innings of Indian batsmen or bowling innings of indian bowlers that they can upload and generate good revenue from them and also promote the game Vk1 1 Link to comment
