Seven’s first BBL match of the season didn’t do much to keep viewers on the main channels last night.

Even with the first of the Big Bash League games on Seven last night, 39.8% was the combined share of the networks’ non-main channels last night. The game between Hobart and Sydney (played in Hobart) averaged 677,000 nationally which was OK but not a break out. Looks like another middling season ahead it would seem and more moaning from Seven. The game averaged a further 188,000 on Foxtel — so 865,000 viewers nationally in total last night.

In breakfast Sunrise 453,000 national and 249,000 metro viewers; Today with 267,000/181,000; ABC News Breakfast 257,000/171,000.

In regional markets, Seven News, 458,000; Seven News 6.30, 441,000; The Chase Australia 5.30pm 280,000; BBL Innings Break, 279,000; BBL Session 1, 276,000.
