This debate was widely expected by the scholarly circles in the United States, because both philosophers are very influential in the field of analytic philosophy.
Rosenberg is a widely read and well-known philosopher of science, social sciences and biology. Craig is a world's leading philosopher of religion and theologian, who has worked a lot on philosophy of science too (specially in philosophy of physics and cosmology).
I attended personally and enjoyed that debate, but I was strongly disappointed by Rosenberg's performance, which was very bad as you can watch for yourself and as the post-debate vote results showed.
This debate will be published in a scholarly book called Is Faith in God Reasonable?, which will include contributions by world' leading atheist and theist philosophers, with responses by Craig and Rosenberg.
I look forward to read that book!.
Read the first part of my review of this debate here.
Enjoy.
