Early finish to cricket leads to quiet evening dominated by news as non-ratings period bites
The early finish to the cricket on Sunday led to a very quiet second evening of the non-ratings period, as news dominated the night.
Australia’s speedy dispatch of New Zealand meant Nine had to replace the night session of the test match with movie The Negotiator in all markets but Perth, which managed 308,000.
Seven won the night with an audience share of 18.1 per cent thanks to its news hour grabbing 1.065m at 6pm and 1.044m at 6.30pm.
Nine wasn’t too far behind with an audience share of 17.3 per cent after its news hour pulled in 975,000 at 6pm, growing to 1.007m from 6.30pm.
