The auction for the media rights will take place on August 31. As per Cricbuzz, Zee and FanCode did not submit thier bids which goes on to show they are not inclined to getting it. Even Google and Amazon have not shown any inclination towards attaining the rights.

What we understand is that two familiar foes – Star and Sony – are of course ther and then there is a new entrant for the TV rights, that is Viacom 18.
