Cricket Australia is believed to favour a joint bid from Nine Entertainment and Fox Sports for its broadcasting rights, despite the fact that Ten Network owner Paramount has made the highest offer. CA is said to be reluctant to give the rights to all forms of cricket to Paramount, although it could secure some of the rights. Meanwhile, Nine is believed to have been given financial advice that it could handle the broadcasting rights to both cricket and the Australian Open.
