Nimbus has bagged the telecast rights for the four cricket one-day internationals to be played by India in Ireland in June.

Nimbus will pay US $6.05 million per match for the series, which will be played from June 26 to July 1, Board of Control for Cricket in India vice-president Lalit Modi said in Mumbai on Thursday.

The series involves three ODIs against South Africa and another against Ireland in Belfast.

The itinerary was in doubt after Zee Television pulled out of its contract with the BCCI on Wednesday.

Zee's deal with the BCCI was for a four-year period with a minimum of 25 one-dayers featuring the Indian team at neutral venues.

Incidentally, Nimbus had on Wednesday walked out of its deal with the Asian Cricket Council for the Afro-Asian Cup, which would now be shown on ESPN-Star Sports.
