India in Australia 2008 : ESPN Doordarshan broadcastFiled under
India tour of Australia
Easy-to understand that whenever a country hosts an International cricket match - some private tv channel have got the live telecast rights. Cricket telecast shown in different countries is by broadcasters who buy the exclusive rights from host country boards!Applying same rule - when India plays in Australia - its ESPN, Star sports and Star cricket (combination of three sports channel in India) who have the telecast rights from cricket Australia (ACB). There's Doordarshan (DD1 or DD National) in our story as well, but we'll first finish how ESPN-star combo will show the 2008 cricket series between India and Australia. and then the Tri-series including Srilanka as third team (fixtures list). ESPN = English, Star cricket = Hindi Cricket Commentary, specially in local language hindi, is a demand every sports channel is looking to offer for viewers. India tour of Australia will be live simultaneously on both ESPN and Star cricket and fans can opt for the voice they want to hear : Sunil Gawaskar, Harsha Bhogle, Ravi Shastri or Atul Wassan! Channel Starcricket is already showing the domestic (national level) matches of Australia - the Ford Ranger Cup. To watch the match highlights, you can visit the offical tv timing time table of channel ESPN & find out the program time when 2 hour highlights package of each test match day's play and ODI will be shown. Or, you can know how to watch match highlights videos online through Internet.. all India vs Australia matches & Common-wealth bank trination series. 
Australian tour on DoordarshanBeing an ODI series, Commonwealth bank triseries between India, Sri lanka and Australia will be live on Doordarshan. Commentary will be both in hindi and English alternately. The India-Australia 4 test match series telecast depends upon how Indian government sees it. If court feels that the 3 mobile 'Border Gawaskar trophy' is important for Indian public - DD1 will telecast the 4 tests as well. Otherwise!!?!! Tata Sky - Dish Tv - Cable Operators This is a tricky part. Dish TV - the Zee combination DTH service has both Channels ESPN, starcricket and Star-sports in their package. Tata Sky doesn't. Consult this forum. As far as local cable operator around Indian cities are concerned - most of them have all the three ESPN channels in their packages (except a few exceptions ofcourse!). All India Radio No confirmation has come as yet whether AIR will give the running commentary of india tour of Australia 2008 but we're tracking the news & inform you as soon as we can. watch this space! Live score lines If all the above television channels fail - readers can always get the live scores and updates of all the matches in the cricket series downunder.
