Aiyoo

That's not me bemoaning anything! That is Robin shouting from behind the stumps. And he did a decent job. So beware Partiv and Dinesh -- your backup job to Dhoni is not safe :) The lone warrior Dravid's innings was sweet to watch. Will Ganguly and Laxman do the same today?

BTW: I did not get a feeling that there were too many ads -- recession...? Also the coverage does not show the dug-outs often -- the expressions there are priceless -- wonder why?

You are right when you say there was not much advertisements.

I think it will pick up as the tournament progresses.

This reminds me one of the reason SET MAX lost their contract was for showing too many advertisements during the last season.:)

Set Max will be the loser if ads don't pick up. Perhaps they will -- but I would have thought the opening matches would have had more ads.

Did they show any non-profit story in the 2.5 mins of strategy break?

that non-profit story is about $1.8m (?) per episode rs... :)

(i read it somewhere...i think @ cricinfo)

sp: really! have you seen it though - I have yet to watch one strategy break to see what is telecast.
