Ten’s broadcast of the second session of the game was the only program to achieve 1m viewers in the OzTAM overnight preliminary ratings, grabbing 1.049m viewers as the Heat scraped a win over the Strikers.
The Adelaide Strikers struggled to hit the 200 run mark in the first session, but still captured an audience of 863,000 viewers.
Not surprised 20 to 1 tanked – it’s more like 200,000 to 1 when you take into account all the (stupefyingly boring) talking heads. The events themselves are somewhat interesting; who cares (apart from themselves) what “celebrities” think of those events.
