BCCI to announce Champions T20 League rights on 8 September
5 September 2008

MUMBAI: The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) will announce the rights holders for its upcoming Champions T20 League on 8 September. The rights include television, net, radio, mobile and sponsorships.

The BCCI had earlier fixed the floor price for the 10-year broadcast rights at $750 million.

Several broadcasters including ESPN Star Sports (ESS) and Sony (which has the rights for the Indian Premier League) have evinced strong interest in acquiring the rights. Global consortiums may also bid for the rights.

In an interview to a business news channel during his recent India visit, News Corp. chairman Rupert Murdoch said that it was a miscalculation in not getting the IPL rights.

The inaugural Champions T20 event takes place from 3-10 December 2008. The rescheduling was because of the Champions Trophy, which was subsequently postponed.

Eight teams, consisting of the reigning winners and runners-up from the domestic Twenty20 competitions in India, Australia and South Africa, plus the reigning Twenty20 champion Sialkot from Pakistan, and the reigning Twenty20 Cup champion from England, Middlesex, have been invited to contest the 2008 Champions League Twenty20.

From next year there will be 12 teams playing 23 matches. The boards of Sri Lanka, West Indies and New Zealand had expressed interest in taking part.
