ICC T20 World Cup

PTV and sports newcomer Hum Network secured International Cricket Council rights in Pakistan over the next two years, agreeing to pay an increase on previous deals for the rights.

Pakistan Television and ARY’s long-term deals for rights in Pakistan to International Cricket Council events has produced a good result for global rights-holder Star India, which avoided a fall in value despite the depreciation of the Pakistani rupee.

The International Cricket Council pushed back until next month a decision on whether this year’s T20 World Cup will go ahead as scheduled in Australia in October and November.
