If you’re using a smart speaker like Google Home or Alexa asking it to play ‘Today FM Dunedin’ works I find.
Asking for Auckland/Wellington/Christchurch seems to default to the FM version in those cities which doesn’t have the cricket (given those 3 cities have Today FM on both AM and FM).

Thanks, do prefer the NZ commentary.
It seems my Smart TV can’t do Kayo Multiview anyhow (but the laptop can).

Yeah TVs don’t have multi view. I believe it’s to do with the processing power.
Mine does?
What TV do you have?
Hardly a surprise that lower-end smart TVs don’t have the processing power required. Have an el cheapo Hisense in the bedroom that doesn’t even have Kayo built in; it struggles masterfully enough with Freeview Plus, mind you.

I have the X80J Bravia but it’s definitely on the lower end. Suits me fine as I’m not a TV junkie but obviously this is the reason.

SEN’s coverage of the fourth and final test between India and Australia will be broadcast nationally today and Friday, except on 1170 in Sydney which is taking NRL tonight and tomorrow (6pm match).
In Brisbane, 693 will broadcast the cricket from 2.25pm to 8pm local time, before going to the NRL.

On the ABC they said they were going to the NRL at 6pm. Suddenly I thought it was Friday but they got the day wrong. Its only Thursday.

It seems that there won’t be a radio call for the three-match ODI series between India and Australia, starting in Mumbai this Friday, March 17. All are day/night matches.

Or they’re being called remotely?
91.3 Sport FM in Perth will broadcast the Sheffield Shield final between WA and Victoria live from WACA Ground, start today at 1pm AEDT.
It will be the first time in a long time that ABC Radio won’t have ball-by-ball commentary of a Sheffield Shield decider.

Any reason why?
Either the ABC doesn’t have the rights to broadcast the Sheffield Shield final live on radio, or it is concentrating its resources on this weekend’s AFL matches in Perth (both Fremantle and West Coast play at home).

SEN revealed it had acquired Australian and New Zealand radio rights to the ICC World Test Championship final between Australia and India, to be held in London on June 7-11.
The announcement came yesterday, just hours after Seven announced it had secured exclusive Australian TV and streaming rights to the match.

Some interesting outright lies from the article/release. The last WTC final was not on SENZ.
