At least you got to see the local Indian matches in South Africa!!! This in itself is a big thing.

Here in NZ too, all the matches (even the international matches played in NZ) are shown only on pay TV. But hardly any international match not involving NZ is shown live or otherwise. The media, the public, the sponsors and all seem to be fascinated with only rugby and nothing else. Until this craze gives way to practicality, there appears to be no chance of cricket fans getting to see all live international matches not involving NZ.
