IPL can go to other broadcasters for TV rights 24/03/2009 |

The Bombay High Court has put Sony Entertainment Television India (now known as Multi Screen Media) on the back foot, allowing the BCCI today to renegotiate the IPL television rights with other broadcasters.
In an afternoon verdict, the court lifted the injunction imposed on the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on 15 March. Justice S J Kathawalla said that Sony can't be given interim relief, as it had not made World Sports Group (Mauritius) a party.
It may be recalled that BCCI had entered into a new contract with WSGM on 15 March, after terminating the contract with Sony the earlier evening.
The hearing of the case would resume on 30 March.
As Sony officials did not want to talk on the IPL issue, it is not clear yet whether they would move the Supreme Court.
