Telstra rejoins race for cricket rights


May 19, 2013 (The Australian - ABIX via COMTEX) -- Telstra has indicated it is again willing to talk to Cricket Australia about securing the mobile and digital rights for cricket. The telco had abandoned discussions with Cricket Australia in April 2013. Meanwhile, Ten Network is said to be well placed to take the rights to televise cricket away from the Nine Network, as it is believed to have made a bid of about $A500 million.
