How sad is that?!
I can't wait to watch all that basket ball, grid iron and baseball. I am
glad that SKY TV is putting that 50 odd dollars we spend per month on such
wonderful sports that us Kiwis just love to watch!

Have you spoken to them, and if so did you receive a credible explanation?
I'll do as much as I can to avoid getting into their telephone system, so
would be interested to hear.

Someone needs to ring NZ Cricket and give MR Sneddin (sp) both barrels at
selling out the cricket to a pay tv provider who won't even show it.
If there is anyone who has access to a english audio feed of the game please
get in touch and I will tell you how to easily stream it. Radio Sports has
no excuses as to it being to expensive to send Brian Waddle to cover it. Its
a piece of cake for someone to stream the audio to them.

I don't think there's any coverage over here in the UK either, which is a
bit dissapointing. I was expecting highlights on SKY.

Listening to Brian Waddle at the end of a test match from Pakistan,
when he's loopy from talking non-stop for nearly a week, and when the
phone keeps disconnecting, is IMHO the high point of cricket. It
requires so much commitment from everyone involved.
I don't believe that they won't send him, when there is so much
interest in the cricketers at the moment. Especially if we continue to
do well in Sharjah.
Don't blame Sneddon for the lack of coverage. It was either Chris Doig
or Peter McDermott who signed away NZC's soul.
Question: How much do you think it actually costs Radio Sport to send
Waddle to cover a tournament? There's salary, travel, accomodation,
food, insurance, and an international phone call that lasts for 7 or 8
hours per day. I really don't know, but it must be a lot!
Pakistan is off to a flying start.
Bye,
James
