ESPN nets Twenty20 rights
US sports broadcaster ESPN has paid almost $1 billion for the global rights to the Twenty20 Champions League, the world’s richest cricket ESPN paid $900 million for the commercial rights and a further $75 million for marketing the tournament. A bid for the rights from Abu Dhabi Sports Club was “disqualified for being a conditional bid”.
