Cricket telecast: court asks BCCI to produce file
MUMBAI,
SEPT. 7.
The Bombay High Court today asked the Board of Control for Cricket in India to produce the file pertaining to the awarding of telecast rights to Zee Network for a four-year period.
A Bench consisting of the Chief Justice, D.S. Bhandari, and Justice D.Y. Chandrachud, adjourned the matter to September 9 after asking for the file.
The ESPN-Star TV Network had challenged the BCCI's decision to award the rights to Zee for which a tender was floated earlier.
The tender pertained to the telecast rights of national and international cricket matches played in the country from October 2004 to September 2008.
The petition contended that ``Zee was not eligible as it did not satisfy the tender conditions.''
It said that Zee did not possess the required two years experience of telecasting cricket matches of international level and also claimed that awarding tender rights to Zee was a violation of the principle of natural justice.
The petition said that ESPN-Star was not given an opportunity to improve its bid after the BCCI had negotiated the price with Zee. — PTI
