Teams of Semi-Final and schedule

After a long time discussion between Prasar Bharati and ESPN Star Sports has come to a commitment that DD may share all the matches India plays, the semi-finals and the final, irrespective of whether India reaches the final stages. For this they have to pay a huge number of money.

The Economic Times has reported two different articles that Sharing feed of the Twenty20 format is not mandatory for the private broadcaster, unlike one-day matches and Tests telecasts. However, officials in the I&B ministry and Prasar Bharati had insisted that since the event was of national importance, the feed of the Twenty20 series too should be shared with Doordarshan.

Meanwhile, ESPN-Star Sports has sold the series at rates about 100% higher than even the 2007 World Cup, with rates averaging Rs 2.75-Rs 3 lakh per 10 seconds. “The format is new, and India’s performance has been encouraging, so advertisers are keen on the series,” a media source said.

For this commitment, millions of cricket lovers in non-cable households will be able to watch ICC’s Twenty20 World Cup kick off in South Africa on September 11.
