Wish 9 would put the test, ODI and T20 live on GEM.
Thankfully no more Brad McNamara – he is very boring to listen to.
I recall last year this didn’t appear to make a difference to GEM’s percentages, perhaps that’ll be different this year – or someone will reveal it did actually improve GEM?
comp already started. shows the token interest that ch9 has
Sadly it’s the commentary teamnthat keeps me away from channel 9’s cricket and has done so for five years now, they talk and talk and talk non-stop ad nauseam, it’s not radio. I won’t be tuning in.
Good to see some day/night games there. With the CA XI skittled for 59 and 79 in their first two games GEM had better get plenty of episodes of Antiques Roadshow on standby…
It’s good to see Nine using GEM more often for sports coverage in HD. Hopefully other networks will do the same this summer. I’ll be tuning in.
