Some cricket on free-to-air TV!
No, this is not a windup. British Eurosport are to broadcast the inaugural Twenty20 Champions League. This will be the first cricket on free-to-air TV since bread first came sliced. Giles Clarke is said to be spitting feathers at the thought of all those people watching for nothing.
In addition to those excellent reasons for tuning in, you will also be able to catch the commentary debut of a certain Andrew Flintoff (once the deal is signed). The tournament, played in India, runs from October 8th to 23rd, and includes the Twenty20 Cup finalists Sussex and Somerset.
According to the report on the Telegraph, Sky did not bid, which may also open the way for the IPL to be broadcast on British Eurosport.
