I think this will be the least "viewed" ashes series in recent times

Finding the lack of even highlights on sky or terrestrial tv quite frustrating. I know that's obviousky cos I don't have BT Sport but I don't think it's a good thing for the game to have the coverage restricted to such a small audience.

Pleased they gave addressed this in part with the new tv rights deal for future internationals.
