MUMBAI: The price may not be right but the very real possibility of being left without India cricket against any of the "major" countries for the foreseeable future looks to have forced the hand of Sony Pictures Networks India. SportzPower understands that SPN paid a premium to retain its rights to the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) across the Indian subcontinent for six more years - 2023 to 2028. 

Sony’s deal will *NOT include The Hundred, ECB’s upcoming franchise-based tournament.
