Neo Sports shares cricket feed with DD

NEW DELHI: The controversy over private broadcaster Nimbus sharing live cricket feed with DD seems to have been settled for now. The Nimbus-owned Neo Sports on Thursday provided ‘clean feed’ (without commercials) of the India-Bangladesh cricket series to DD without the logo of the channel.

The marketing for the advertisements on DD is being undertaken by Nimbus, and the revenue will be shared on a 75:25 basis, in favour of Nimbus. Besides, the telecast is also being shown on DD’s DTH platform, which is called DD Direct.

However, the feed provided to Raj TV and Vissa TV, which will carry commentary in Tamil and Telugu respectively, will carry the Neo Sports logo. The series includes three ODIs and two Tests.
