I suggest to them Spotify. SCA execs will suggest Listnr app or Triple M DAB+ stations. Honestly it’s 2021, radio needs to re-invent itself beyond wall-to-wall music content. Nothing wrong with live sport on the radio.

I am getting SENZ ads on the England v India commentary (via the SEN app). Ads mainly for Auckland. Is this normal?
EDIT: Just realised it is branded ‘SENZ Test Cricket’. D’oh.

Last night i think the cricket was on SEN 1116 although I did tune in at lunch time. The religious show was on last night on 1170. I went to sleep. I still have not listened to the cricket on an analog radio yet (when it has not included Australia). Maybe tonight 
.
Well its on 1170 SEN tonight, the India vs England test match. Better than hearing replays of the breakfast show or a simulcast of SENTrack. Well done SEN.

The ABC has acquired non-commercial radio rights for next month’s ICC men’s T20 World Cup. I heard a promo after the 1pm news on ABC Melbourne today.

Great! Will probably be a joint broadcast with 5 Live (if they have the rights).

They will be calling the action over the TV in Melbourne.
Also, ABC Local Radio in NSW and Victoria will still be broadcasting their respective COVID press conferences during the series, so the best way to hear the cricket uninterrupted is through ABC Grandstand on digital radio, ABC Listen app or ABC Radio website.

Great team. Others will join for just a day or match.
Solid lineup but missing an England analyst/pundit
would not be suprised to see Beefy take that role - he’s al;ready out here for 7 -just don’t put him on the same shift as chapelli

Thought I heard Vaughn being interviewed on Grandstand a few weeks ago now and I thought his presence was being discussed. I could be wrong though!
They’re English.

Think someone else pointed this out previously but Botham was involved with Triple M’s coverage during the last home Ashes series so he could be with them.
Both Agnew and Mitchell are commentators - I’m talking about the ABC lineup not having an English pundit
