Cricket on Radio

Also the contract is signed with Macquarie Sports Radio, not Nine Radio.

It will be interesting if 2ue/4bh/Magic will broadcast the game.

SEN in Adelaide is broadcasting the ODI series, so maybe taking Nine Radio’s feed.
If Magic in Melbourne is covering the cricket, that means no NRL because it is on the same time as the night session of the one-day match.

ABC Grandstand (on DAB) is current replaying the 1st Ashes test match in England from 2005.

Now replaying highlights of Australia v the West Indies, the 4th Test of the 1992/93 series. Australia went into this match 1-0 up in the series, with a chance to claim the series. The final result is the smallest in Test match history. This was the match that current Australian Men’s head coach, West Australian Justin Langer, made his debut at first drop.

Is the ABC Grandstand schedule published anywhere? Live sport is easy enough to find but the filler between can be of interest.

Had a quick look on the website it isn’t obvious , I agree some old retro sport especially if they have the whole match from especially from earlier than 2010 would be a great listen. It was a shame the cricket was only small snippets.

I remember they used to publish a schedule on their website but they seemed to have stopped doing that. It’s a shame because it would have been good to know over the past few months what classic matches/events they were replaying and when

I forgot too. You can listen to BBC Live sports extra using tune in radio. But you do need a VPN. No idea why they geoblock it when no one else broadcast it on the radio.

ABC Grandstand will cover every match of the women’s T20 and ODI series between Australia and New Zealand, starting at Brisbane’s Allan Border Field this Saturday (September 26). In NSW, ACT and QLD, the cricket will be broadcast on digital radio (online streaming to be confirmed) due to NRL coverage on analogue radio.

Any Deano tributes on air scheduled?

Will the Women’s International Series be on Macquarie Radio? According to the broadcast agreement, all Women’s matches are meant to be on Macquarie but I can’t find anything

Problem is VictorianSun is right that Nine Radio has contractual obligations resulting from the cricket rights agreement Macquarie signed for MSR. One of those is meant to be airing all international women’s matches
