As it is often the case, there is still no deal in place with a TV broadcaster, despite there being less than a fortnight to go until the series gets underway. The last test series in 2021 was broadcast on Channel 4 after a last minute deal, with the limited over matches ending up on Sky in a two year deal for all India home matches. The last 12 months has had India matches shown on BT/TNT.
It's shambolic how this happens like clockwork every single series.

As you said BCCI leave it to the wire every time, the Guardian had an article about this last week and said they think Channel 4 will be unlikely to make a bid this time as Channel 4 are concentrating their finances on the Paralympics. They guessed the rights would end up like you indicated on Sky or TNT.
