Triple M Cricket Bolsters Commentary Line-Up For Our Biggest Summer Yet

Having signed a new, seven-year agreement that retained Triple M Network’s exclusive FM metro broadcast rights and digital audio and metro DAB+ rights for cricket, Triple M has now unveiled its unrivalled cricket commentary team for summer.

For the first time in Australia, India will take on the Aussies across five Test matches and Triple’s M stellar commentary line up will be there for every ball, boundary and wicket.

Leading the network’s ‘first XI’ commentary team is cricketing icon, former Australian captain and Triple M’s Mark Taylor AO, who will be joined behind the mic by James Brayshaw and Mark Howard along with Australian cricketers Merv HughesGreg Blewett, Mark Waugh AM, Brad Haddin, Callum Ferguson and Isabelle Westbury

The line up is bolstered by international cricket royalty Lord Ian Botham OBE and Triple M’s Dan Ginnane, with further names to be announced soon.

Throughout a hot summer of cricket, Triple M and LiSTNR will broadcast the Australian men’s international games played in Australia, including Tests, One Day Internationals and T20 internationals, and the three Australian women’s T20 international games against England.

The games will be broadcast on Triple M stations in the five metro cities and are available to stream on LiSTNR, meaning cricket fans never have to miss a minute of the action on Triple M.

The first match to be broadcast on Triple M and streamed on LiSTNR will be played on Monday, 4 November, when the Australian men’s team takes on Pakistan in a One Day International at the MCG.

Mark Taylor AO said: “I’m looking forward to what will be an exciting summer of cricket, both on the field and in the Triple M commentary box. The cricket will no doubt be very competitive with the Aussies looking to avenge recent series losses to India here in Australia. I’m personally looking forward to watching it all unfold and the fun that we will have commentating on it. Bring it on!”

SCA Head of Sports Content, Ewan Giles, said: “Triple M’s cricket coverage this summer is going to be huge. We have five tests of the Aussies v India, the one day-ers and T20 games. Plus, the team is excited to be calling the women’s matches. Whilst it gets hot out on the pitch, it also heats up in the commentary box and I know the team is fired up for the first match next week when the Aussies take on Pakistan in the day-night One Day International.”
