IPL Cricket on Tata Sky DTH

It is IPL season now and everyone is hooked on to Cricket and TV these days. There is talk about little else other than antics of Yuvraj singh, Andrew Symonds, the glitz as well as the glamorous parties. The whole nation is captivated by the matches between the competing teams. Bringing all the glitz, glamour and action into our drawing rooms is Tata sky.

Like each season, it is indeed a pleasure to watch all the cricketing action on Tata Sky. I am reminded of the Asin ads which Tata Sky brought out last season, in which the wife (“someone who traditionally does not watch cricket”), is clearly so enthralled by Tata Sky that she does not want to answer the doorbell or check if the Iron is burning. But that was last season. This IPL season, Tata Sky has offered Set Max channel free of cost to all its subscribers for the duration of IPL. It is available on channel no 305. Thus, now all Tata Sky subscribers irrespective of whichever package they subscribe to can view IPL action.

An added bonus is the Active Cricket service. Pressing the red button on the Set Max channel brings you to Tata Sky’s Actve Cricket service. It is available throughout the IPL season except when Live matches are on. You can watch the IPL highlights of the matches. They show the repeat telecast of matches throughout the day till the nest match so you don’t have to worry if you miss any. I see availability of Set Max for all subscribers as well as the Actve Cricket service as a great example of Tata Sky’s commitment for enhancing TV viewing experience to its subscribers. It makes watching cricket on Tata Sky and absolute pleasure!
