Its good that Star cricket is being launched in Tata Sky. But one thing we need to note that, its Tata sky's duty and responsibility to bring star cricket into their channel package and they should not think that they have done a favour or an addon effort to the customers.. Infact its a last minute operation they have done which is a real shame... They have removed around 15 channels without prior notice... Please keep that in mind..This forum should continue, as it acts as a subsidary company of Tata sky customer care because it conveys the real feelings of a tata sky customer and more importantly, it takes those feelings closer to Tata sky officials... Tata sky should match the no. of channels what dish tv offers and should be more proactive in bringing any newly launched channels.. which will not create any sort of false expectations over customer minds...
