Last time Zee Sports had the India vs Sri Lanka series, but they did not show it on Dishnetwork payperview.Sahara ONE just missed the deal , that would have put the these matches on Dishnetwork for sure like India England series.

It will be fitting for ARY to telecast these matches in the USA!

[Rana]

What series is this guys, i heard its being played in abu Dhabi and pakistan has announced its squad for it aswell

Can Sum1 pls explain us about this?

[Rana]

is it bieng shown on ARY?

[Saj]

The first match's proceeds will go to the Earthquake relief fund. The matches have been organised mainly for the expat community in the UAE.

[Rana]

But the real question is who is going to show these matches????

[TaZ]

Im positive as Zee has the rights to off shore venue, then again if we r lucky it will b on ARY.

I have been watching cicket in USA since 1994-1999 (Direct TV) and then 1999-2006 (Dish Network)....and I am yet to watch an Ind/Pak game on a network (e.g. Zee, Prime, ARY, etc).....it has ALWAYS been PPV. So, if Dish Network is showing it.....then it will PPV - like $30 a game or something like that!

One of my friend in Oklahoma did watch Pak/SL series (3 ODIs and 2 Test) for a total price of $14 on a streaming website. He said, same site is offering Pak/IND 2 ODI in April for some very cheap price!

ZEE TV shows atleast 2 series/year, but most of them are low key matches! e.g the Afro-Asia cup or the 20 20 tournment!, so the IND PAK games are completely out of question.The best series they ever showed was the 3 ODI series vs AUS in AUS!
About 3 or 4 years ago Dish Network allowed us to order seperate matches, but now they make us buy the entire package(rip off).

Does anyone know who will be showing it in the Middle East, Kuwait?

well YK i think desi larka answered ur question, yeah rogers showed it in toronto, and when i was in toronto a few months ago, they showed the england india odis but on pay per view. unfortunately im stuck in another corner of canada, SASKATCHEWAN. here ATN showed the test matches between pak and india (but NOT pak sri lanka,i dunno how it works?), for the one days u had to get it through "pay per view"

but my cable connection THEN, didnt have pay per view, now ive got SHAW cable, so they have pay per view and showed the india england odis, but i aint payin 30$ to see engalnd go down . couldnt really watch the sri lankan games as i was really busy at uni so didnt even bother to check really. ur best bet would be dish network, rogers....pay per view will cost u though. if ur in toronto im sure there are alot of guys here whove been in toronto for quite some time,theyll help. im still new to canada.....lahori hun yar, pata nahee kaisay idar a keh phans geya hun

the good enws is that all of pakistans upcoming tours are biig ones, the tour to england will definitely be shown, and the games against india, WELL, the indians always get coverage, theyre everywhere, and theyre breeding!

[WIW_SRT]

Can anyone message me the name of the website that is showing these matches please.

Based on recent 4-1 win and 2-0 at Abu dhabi. And y argue just wait couple more days to find out.

[greentie]

Hoping for a 2-0 win by Pakistan, but that us unlikely, India will take it 2-0. The best Pakistan can do is hope for a tie.

.......and what was 4-1 win based upon? 4-2 drubbing in Ind??


....and if you win 2-0 in Abu Dhabi, the overall record will be a whopping 69-41? Right? In next 5-10 years, you may catch up..at this rate! Why don't you start celebrating right now?
