Fox wouldn't remotely be in the ballpark. They lost the BBL because they couldn't stump up $20m which is now seen as a steal.

If there's no Nine, Seven is the only alternative and they won't be paying overs.

No way Nein will give up their cricket coverage. Does the UBS estimates take into account advertising revenue?

There is a suggestion that this report was strategically placed by Nine to help their bargaining position with the rights. CA will already be on notice that Ten cannot afford huge $, Seven is heavily committed elsewhere, and the public broadcasters won't be bidding big.
