The new media rights tender for the 2023-2027 cycle will hit the market on March 28. The BCCI will arrange an e-auction for the new bidders and the result will be announced after the upcoming IPL 2022 season. A final go-ahead to float the tender was given by the IPL Governing Council in a meeting here on Friday.
There will be no consolidated rights category in the current tender. The BCCI will invite bids across four separate packages—digital, TV, the rest of the world and a new non-exclusive bundle of 18 matches as per the advice from KPMG, the consultants of the current tender. “The idea is to spread opportunities to different interested media companies and maximise revenue for the board,” a BCCI official said.
