BCB takes all measures to curb broadcast errors in BBPL
DHAKA, Dec 10, 2019 (BSS)-The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) took all
the steps to curb the production errors as much as they can in the
Bangabandhu Bangladesh Premier League (BBPL).
The BCB CEO Nizamuddin Chowdhury said here today that they are learning
from their previous production-wise mistakes and leaves no stone unturned so
that it is not repeated this time around.
In the previous season, absence of Ultra Edge, Snickometer or Hot Spot
technology in the tournament’s Decision Review System (DRS) had made the
headlines alongside many instances of errors in the broadcast.
There were several occasions where commentators were heard
mispronouncing players’ names, getting the names of fielding positions wrong.
Furthermore there were several occasions when viewers had to experience
graphical errors.
“There is always learning from mistake. This time we [BCB] tried to
ensure the best of the technologies for [broadcast] production,” Chowdhury
said.
Spider cam and drone will be used to give the better broadcast
experience this time, he informed.
“Spider cam and drone will be used in broadcasting the matches. In Dhaka
we will have the spider cam because of the available facility and in
Chittagong and Sylhet we will have the drone,” he added.
