shah2kool Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 I was just reading a few articles online and realised that there will be no TV coverage of IPL 2010 season in UK/Europe as it will be shown on YouTube for free? Is this correct? Thanks
achilles Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 I believe so. But the Zee network in UK must be offering it on paid subscription
DomainK Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 Well, if it's free on youtube, there should be no problem.
Gunner_Mania Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 I believe so. But the Zee network in UK must be offering it on paid subscription Nope. Setanta had the rights. After they shut shop last year nobody is showing it this year, but available free on Uh Toob. I think IPL have got their own channel on You Tube and there was also talk that you will have the chance to pause and rewind etc on Youtube. http://www.cricinfo.com/ipl2010/content/story/445173.html The move is expected to give the IPL access to global markets, especially those where it does not have arrangements for live telecast. That includes the UK, where the rights were originally sold to the now-defunct Setanta and have not been re-sold - and where the internet will now be the sole medium for fans to watch the IPL.
achilles Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 Setanta had exclusive rights? Coz in the US multiple networks show IPL and Zee shows all the Indian matches pretty much everywhere outside India.
Gunner_Mania Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 Setanta had exclusive rights? Coz in the US multiple networks show IPL and Zee shows all the Indian matches pretty much everywhere outside India. Not in the UK. Most Cricket in UK is shown by Sky. Sky has tie ups with Nimbus - IND, BD, host broadcasters in Australia, SA, NZ, WI. That leaves only SL & Pak. There is hardly any cricket in Pak, they are playing in Eng against australia this summer. So pretty much all Indian cricket is covered by Sky. IPL was with Setanta and the Champions League with British Euro Sport. Setanta's coverage anyways was rubbish last year.
shah2kool Posted February 8, 2010 Author Posted February 8, 2010 any news on this? who is showing IPL on TELEVISION in the UK? Thanks
Cricketics Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 Ya people in UK should watch 2020 of UK. They shouldn't be allowed to watch IPL.:cantstop: On the other hand, people in USA should be given special HD service for IPL
shah2kool Posted February 15, 2010 Author Posted February 15, 2010 any news on this anyone? I'v searched everywhere but no clue about where it will be shown?
Gunner_Mania Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 any news on this anyone? I'v searched everywhere but no clue about where it will be shown? It will be shown on U Toob.
Sachinism Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 All in the UK wait and watch this space for news where we will broadcast ipl. It is an extremely important market. We are working overtime - Modi's twitter
Rajma Chawal Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 Hopefully Sky Sports get it because lets face it, they are the best. And we can get coverage in HD then. But I have a feeling they will sell it to ESPN.
Gunner_Mania Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 Hopefully Sky Sports get it because lets face it, they are the best. And we can get coverage in HD then. But I have a feeling they will sell it to ESPN. We won't get HD coverage, because Sony max the host broadcaster will not cover it in HD. Why will they cover the games in HD when they don't have any HD channels. The current India-SA series also is not available in HD since Neo doesn't cover them in HD.
Sachinism Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 Have they started broadcasting HD channels in India yet?
Gunner_Mania Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 Have they started broadcasting HD channels in India yet? No. Don't think so.
