TMS, Sky, etc.

I usually like Warne but he drove me bonkers today - then they all jumped on the same bandwagon and got it wrong.

I wasn't listening to the tv, but so I hear. They were a bit more restrained on the radio.

CWOTV much better this week with Haigh and Selvey. Haigh very eloquent.

Swann is commentating on the tour to WI. Unfortunately, so is Pringle.

Sky have bought exclusive IPL rights for 3 years starting next year ( 2015 )

[Arthur Crabtree]

The only cricket that was on the license fee.

I wonder what happened about home Ashes series going on the list of events to be shown on free to air. I think that decision was weirdly kicked beyond the next election, together with banking reforms.

That means that the last IPL I watch will be this year....I presume this year's is still on ITV.

[Arthur Crabtree]

I would have thought ITV would be better for IPL. They don't need any more money, and ITV gave it a longer reach to expand.

That means Sky may not be showing something that they currently do and which I enjoy. I may have to review my subscription.

The by-play on TMS between Aggers and Viv is so entertaining....

But on Sky, I find Bumble and Dujon so informative....

So, I have both on at once!


Of course, when I say Sky, I'm really watching Jamaican channel TVJ on their website....

First cricket I've seen this summer. Has Michael Vaughan been lured by the Sky pound full time? If so, surely he will be in the test roster (alongside recent test recruits in Strauss and Knight?) Has anyone been discarded?

I suspect he will just be with Sky for these T20 games so Gower and Botham can rest up for the internationals. If he has moved to Sky TMS will definitely benefit IMHO.

Are Sky still having a match every day with the current fixture list?

[Arthur Crabtree]

I think Vaughan is still on TMS. Just doing Sky domestic matches.

Just in case he is joining Sky full time I've started a protest movement -

[SaintPowelly]

As someone who no longer has Sky, and sometimes listens to TMS, I hope he is with Sky permanently.
