Was awake this morning about 2:00 Am – surfing the TV channels and lo and behold – NBC sport network (NBCSN) was showing Big-Bash cricket live ------ now I just decide to do a program search and note that they broadcasting the CPL – and Big Bash ---- can ODIs be far behind?

ESPN and Fox Sports have done so I'm surprised NBC have decided to do this. But these networks are becoming do much more aware of the diverse audience in which they cater. This is really good for them.
I think ESPN has also lost the rights to broadcast the next two world cups to NBC as well.
Good thing it won't be bias American commies commentating cricket matches anytime soon so that's a good thing.

In the UK it's on BT Sport...I just watched Pollard take a stunning catch!

In the first two matches the catching has been generally surprisingly poor. This is Australia after all, and Australians are supposed to set the standard for fielding...so much for that myth.

Shocking indeed. Afterall they cover golf which lasts for 4 days. Test cricket matches , at least those involving the W.I. usually lasts 3 days.
