As there is currently a significant legal dispute between The Board of Control for Cricket in India (which owns and controls the commercial rights in the Indian Premier League) and the company through which Network Ten secured the Australian broadcast rights, Network Ten has decided NOT to broadcast the IPL.

The matter is currently before the Court in India so we will not be making any further comments at this time.

Absolute BS.

Just days out from the start of the tournament and with so many Aussies playing in it this year too.

Don't think you can blame One for this one - this appears to be a BCCI issue, again.

FOX Sports is also unable to come to the aid of IPL cricket fans whilst TEN remains the rights holder.

Another reason why no free to air channel should be able to get exclusive rights to any sporting event ever
