Does know one watch cricket any more? Spark Sport seems to have reduced interest in the game.
November is rather early for Black Caps.
Same issue in Aus - only 10k turned up to the MCG the other day for Aus-England.

Spark Sport won't release their viewer numbers for any of the sport they broadcast. That tells me one thing, and it ain't good news.
I've just got used to not watching any domestic international cricket now. TVNZ was meant to have the first T20i live but that match was rained off.

I've got Spark, but only for cricket. I just figure it's a hundy for all the cricket all season ... seems readonable to me.
The real issue was going to Sky a few decades ago. It stripped it from free to air, and makes it harder for kids to engage.
I suspect Spark will sell out to Sky soon; Sky are in a bit of a resurgence from looking ilke they were a sunset company.

I don't mind the new system.
I pay $40 per month for sky now, but only when the Rugby season is on, or $24 per month when it's cricket season. Beats paying $100 a month for sky all year round.
Unlike others I've never had any real issues with streaming.

Nobody watching this arvo's game?
Might be a bit of a damp squib.
Radar not looking promising.

Covers still on not looking great, 4.5 overs is all we might get.

Plenty of rain in the last hour, especially the last 30 mins. I doubt there will be any cricket for a while. A warm sunny day yesterday.
