Bureau Report
NEW YORK: For those of you who have cable, and missed watching the first T20 match between India and Pakistan, there is still time to catch the rest of the action: for the first time ever, U.S. Pay-Per-View on cable is going to be airing an international cricket tournament, featuring India vs. Pakistan in five matches.
India and Pakistan will be playing two Twenty20 (T20) and three one-day international (ODI) matches. Pakistan cricket has not toured India since 2007, so the PPV coverage is a special event for cricket fans here in the U.S. The matches are broadcast in English and all will be telecast on Pay-Per-View, in all major cable systems throughout the United States.
The five games will air through January 6, 2013, and must be ordered individually on a Pay-Per-View basis. Each match is $14.99, although a press release specified that some of the rates may be subject to change.
After the first match held at Bengaluru, the other matches are to be held at Ahmedabad (second T20 on December 28th), Chennai (first ODI on December 29th), Kolkata (second ODI on January 3rd) and Delhi (third ODI January 6th). For further information, go to www.indemand.com/events
Customers are encouraged to order the events within one-hour of start times, wherein they will be able to see pre-show countdown content.
The content provider for the India vs Pakisan cricket tournament is Willow TV. It is distributed to U.S. cable systems by In Demand L.L.C.
