Sony TV has the rights for all cricket played in New Zealand, and one of their channel - Sab TV, Set Max or Sony TV channel will telecast the matches.

Somebody please confirm.

It seems no one is following here the series between England and West Indies much. The west indians pulled off an amzing draw last night. The last pair of Powell and Edwards lasted 10 long overs before light was offered to them. Could not see the last part of the match but got up in the morning and checked Cricinfo for the score before washing the face and yessss ... liked the news.

This West Indian team is looking a bit different and result oriented, but it was again the old pair of Chanderpaul and Sarwan who were the kingpins for the draw. Remember 418 chase by W Indies !!! This the same pair which made that happen.

Feel sorry again for the English team and the Bamy army... In India they set a huge total and lost. Here again they could not pull off a victory .. Better luck next time man .. Waiting to hear what Geoff Boycott has to say on this !!!!!

Guys anyone following the WI-ENG series?

The first test was awesome and the second one quite amazing as well. The way the WI tail enders batted in the end to save the 2nd test - So much determination was amazing to see.

Why no highlights ? I am sure highlights will be telecast, even if its done on a sister channel aka SabTV etc.

If nothing else, DD1 balle balle.

Younis Khan batting at 300+. Will he go ahead and break highest runs scored record in tests of 400 runs by Lara in the last day of the test between PAK vs SL..

Eddy · 24th February 2009, 19:35
