Tasmanian government slams Seven BBL allegations

 Tasmania's state government has emphatically denied allegations from Channel Seven that it provided financial inducement for Cricket Australia to play the opening rounds of the BBL in a hub in the island state.

In an affidavit lodged with the Australian Federal Court on Monday, Seven's head of sport Lewis Martin sought to outline the network's claims that CA has breached its broadcast contract by not prioritising the broadcaster's interests at every turn of a year that has been overturned in planning terms by Covid-19.
