Summer of sport ratings

Sport continues to dominate summer ratings.

The Big Bash League helped TEN’s primary channel to and ahead of its rivals, whilst the network topped all three demos last week 16-39, 18-49 and 25-54.

Tennis on 7mate enjoyed a big lift, up from 2.2% share last week to 5.9% this week, which bodes well for the Australian Open.

Meanwhile The Ashes: Australia vs England S3 (1.28m) was the highest ranking title of the week.

The Ghan saw SBS rise last Sunday but overall it finished the week 0.1% down on the preceding week.
