Ten confident Delhi is ready for Commonwealth Games
Network Ten are confident that Delhi will be ready for the opening of the Commonwealth Games in October despite media reports suggesting venues are way behind schedule.
Both Indian and international media coverage is questioning whether the venues for the Games will be completed in time for the October 3 opening ceremony with further reports suggesting corruption is rife and the quality of the construction is questionable.
Ten’s general manager of sport David White said that while there is some basis to the claims, the major stadiums are finished.
“These are going to be great Games,” White says. “There’s a lot of good news that doesn’t get reported.”
“The Indian way, as they say, is not to put the marquee up until the bride comes round the corner and we’ve experienced that,” he says.
White also addressed concerns over the security of both athletes and spectators in Delhi.
“As far as security goes, I have no concerns. The Indians have taken every precaution, as has the Australian government.”
Ten has Coles, AAMI, Hungry Jacks and Commonwealth Bank on board as sponsors of their games’ coverage, which will be split in Australia between Ten and Foxtel.
