BREAKING: Seven West Media is moving towards terminating its $450m deal with Cricket Australia, issuing the game’s governing body a notice that it is in breach of its contract.
Seven West Media has ramped up its battle with Cricket Australia, issuing the game’s governing body a notice on Wednesday that it is in breach of its contract with the network over its proposed schedule for the summer.
This is disputed by sources in cricket, who maintain CA and the BCCI have worked cooperatively to put together a revised schedule. The delay of the Indian Premier League this year - the final will be on November 10 - has also been a contributing factor in the calendar having to be revised.Both Seven and Foxtel objected to force majeure notices being sent by CA to the broadcasters late last month, with Seven briefing prominent barrister Neil Young QC.
Seven is angry that as a result the first men's international on free-to-air television will be delayed, with the ODIs and T20 internationals shown only on Foxtel.
