The respondents in the case include the government of India, ESPN-Star
Sports, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and PriceWaterhouse
Cooper (PwC), the audit firm that vetted the various bids.
Zee had moved the Supreme Court on Wednesday after the BCCI on
Tuesday filed an affidavit in the Bombay High Court that it was
cancelling the tendering process and would retain the rights of
Indian cricket with itself. Immediately after that, ESPN Star Sports,
a joint venture between Walt Disney and News Corp, withdrew its
petition against the award of the rights to Zee.
Zee had said in its petition that its contract for cricket telecast
rights with the BCCI was signed and was not incomplete as the BCCI
maintains.
