1st T20I: Australia v India at Homebush, Sydney, Feb 1st 2012.

I think it's safe to say that this match has been a foregone conclusion when India lost Kohli

It appears as though I was correct. Bob Simpson was the last Australian player to play an international past the age of 40.

brad hodge will be the next

channel 9 getting worse every year, f#cking woeful in every sport

It's of my understanding that they're not even broadcasting the India/Sri Lanka matches in the ODI series? Can someone verify this for me. If so, they should just offload the whole lock stock and barrel to Fox Sports. Fair enough, Fox Sports commentary team doesn't set the world on fire but their coverage of the game would be 1000x better than Ch9 delaying the T20 coverage in Perth by 3 hrs (So, right at this moment that Perth are receiving the first ball of the match, more than 11 overs of the 2nd innings have already been bowled. Disgraceful!)

Oh ok. Well, I guess you could say that something is better than nothing

Regarding the part in bold, I was about to say that even though Ch9 has screwed over many sports, RL is the one they screw over the most. They know that RL is their cash cow and the network would die in the sea of red ink without it in the winter months, so they milk and manipulate it for all that it's worth. Even the lower rating Union got matches on GEM for the World Cup. I really hope that this year is the last they will have any form of exclusivity over the tv rights, and even better, if they lost the rights altogether (that's a topic for another thread)

Last time we had the Tri Series, they showed the India/SL games on Fox, but used Ch 9 commentators along with Brendan Julian.
