Msg: Live Cricket commentary at BBC Five live

oracle · #1 May 3, 2005, 07:30 AM

BBC Five Live sports will cover with live uninterrupted commentary all the matches of Bangladesh this summer.

Their online website has access to the radio channel:

BBC

Most probably we will have a member of the BD team giving views after each days play. This has been confirmed by BBC.

When you say all the matches, you mean the Tests and ODIs right? Or will they cover the warm-up games as well?

The email confirmation I received was regarding the tests and ODI. I doubt about the warm ups. Although there might be UK radio stations that have something on air. Nevertheless, the good old cheap transistor will come in handy.

Yeah, they do cover all Tests and ODIs in England. I doubt we will find any coverage of the warm-ups though. Will just have to follow the live scores on CricInfo.

>> yes Sports fan.... it's Internet radio.

Thats good.

But live five bradcast premier football only for UK residents. Thats why I was wondering ...

Is it free?

Clarification received from Five live sports:

""....Our international cricket coverage this summer is available to online
listeners all over the world. When internet coverage is restricted to
the UK, the schedule on the website always indiates as such. If the
schedule simply says "available online", anyone in the world can listen.
Contractual reasons mean that we are not always able to broadcast our
sports commentaries online throughout the world, although we would
clearly like to do so.

And yes, "uninterrupted" means exactly that - you will hear every ball.

Hope that helps.""
