No cricket aside from one west indies one day match(april ),and Highlights of one days play in the third test(august) has appeared on sky sports red button on vm, and it is my belief sky are keeping red button stats on the cricket red button for themselves,as it would have appeared by now if that was not the case.

And has been pointed out already cricket is not on the interactive red button list at all for august.

But there you go,if the red button icon is not in the bottom right hand corner of the screen no matter how many times you press the red button nothing will happen.!!!!!!

But there you go.
Yes it would be nice to have the red button for the cricket but some red button is better then none and you never know it might be added for next seasons cricket.

You dont get red button for the individual game... just match choice which is on SS2 now...
do they not do player cam and where you can pick another angle to watch and where you get orther match results?

Yes i do watch some football as a passive supporter of no one team in particular,but it is not my main sport just like i have met many football supporters who have no time for sport other then football.

Still at least i now know if i do get cheesed off about the situation in future sky is an option for me now.

Guys... lets first of all see if this is true or not... IF match choice isn;t available tonight (as suggested by the Red Button schedule) then I suggest we all write to CIndy Rose about it via email

I will not post it on here but PM me for it. If enough people email her then something maybe done!!!!

It was pretty unequivacle that we would get Match Choice. It will be a disgrace if we do not.
