BCCI wakes up finally, to live stream Duleep Trophy final and Deodhar games | Cricket News – Times of India
MUMBAI: After some delays and indecision, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has finally taken steps to address the live telecast of domestic matches by deciding to live stream them on its website.
The initiative will begin with the final of the Duleep Trophy, which starts on July 12. The BCCI will broadcast important games of the domestic fixtures until a new broadcaster is identified on bcci.tv.
It is understood that the board has reached out to several commentators for both English and Hindi coverage and will start streaming the Duleep Trophy final between West Zone and South Zone from the Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru from Wednesday.
Furthermore, it is understood that this arrangement will continue for the upcoming Deodhar Trophy as well, and the significant matches of the one-day inter-zonal domestic games will be live-streamed from Puducherry. The Deodhar Trophy is scheduled to take place in the Union Territory from July 24 to August 3.
The BCCI has faced severe criticism on social media for not broadcasting the domestic matches. The season began on June 28 with Duleep Trophy games in Bengaluru and Alur.

The BCCI has faced severe criticism on social media for not broadcasting the domestic matches. The season began on June 28 with Duleep Trophy games in Bengaluru and Alur.
The main obstacle for the BCCI was the absence of a broadcaster after the previous deal with Disney Star ended in March. The BCCI intended to sign a new deal by July but unforeseen developments in the broadcast industry, including the continued delay in the Sony-Zee merger, forced them to postpone issuing the tender.
The BCCI recently appointed Ernst & Young as a consultant for the broadcast rights and it is anticipated that the BCCI will issue the tender for the next four years next week. The process is expected to be completed by August 19, as BCCI Secretary Jay Shah indicated.
He stated the other day, “We will have a new broadcaster by the end of August,” confirming that the new broadcaster will be in place before the three-match India-Australia ODI series in September.
