Is this true that Sky were't allowed their own commentators?

Child like nation

Cricket is a poor advert for cricket.

VDV,

You come under category number 4 in my article.... never seen or heard from you before. India win and you turn up. Sing when your winning....you only...............

Redknapp,

Sky havent made an official comment on it. But apparently indians didnt like the idea of them showing replays of hawk-eye because it wasnt being used officially during the game.... Sky show it as additional just for their viewers... dont see the issue in it personally

First of all you're wrong, I made this topic after our recent tour against England - http://www.ja606.co.uk/articles/viewArticle/29247

Second of all, why are you obsessing over India? Shouldn't you be focusing on your joke of a nation, I mean Pakistan. Don't hate, appreciate.

Vdv,

In all fairness boss, I dont hate. But there certainly is nothing to appreciate, as you can verify from my article.

Pakistan start on tuesday.....

thats a pointless opinion its not pakistani peoples problems there are some loonatics ruining making it imposible for them to play at home...
As for the OP sentiments i agree on a large extent...India dictate far to much in cricket these days. You have to look at the icc for that.. take the world test championship. was going to be arranged for 2013.. But since India would unlikely be part of it. It gets over looked.
Saying all that welldone to India today..

Well, the stuff about Raina I can get over, **** happens, and its too early to start pointing the finger in that regard, you'd better be sure if you do.

The stuff about the toss and pitch is true, but such is cricket. Winning the toss and getting the right conditions, nothing new there. No point is being a bad loser about normal cricket stuff.

If its true the Indians refused the Sky commentators then its a disgrace. Mainly because the Sky cricket commentary is by far the best in the world. This whole DRS issue is now a farce. Not that I need to tell you that, the likes of Neon know it is and are completely embarrassed. Even though he wont admit it

We are discussing cricket not politics...pakistan is a bad place to visit as its unsafe for alot of people not just the cricket side of things, Why Pakistan cant play at home is irellevent to this topic..
The op was discussing how cricketing authorities are handling things..

Look at your passports, the key bit is the part where it says nationality - English

Pointless odi series in my opinion.These kind of series only serves to strenghten BCCI and/or its bosses financially.

Reason for 50% attendance in a cricket mad country like India is simply there is too much cricket.2 sides have just concluded the ODI and test series that last nearly 4 months and in the midst of all this , the Indians were bombarded with Champions League as well.IMO, English and Indian players will be exhaused of seeing the same faces for the last 4 months.Heavy dose wil only exacerbate the situation.

afridi what r u on about. This is the same pitch we will see when pakistan play other teams in the next couple of months. Maybe even flatter than what we say today, and u will be the first one to comment that england players struggle in slow pitches. I mean flat tracks should be the easiest to chase from what u say. Its meant to be the easiest if u r a champion on green pitch?

Viru,

I was actually talking about the game from a neutral point of view... when paks play, i wont be a neutral. Ps, like i said credit to the indian spinners and india.

Arfidi14,

Please do your research before blantly blaming anything Indian. The reason the match broadcast was delyed was because there were disagreements between Parsar Bharti and Neo Sports.

Neo sports is required to pay money to Parsar Bhati to allow broadcast of event in India outside of India, there paid there due at the last possible moment and hence the license was delayed.

The sky commentary issue is also the same. They need a license to broadcast and didn't have one. SIMPLE?
