which radio station is the cricket on
For live cricket, the radio station depends on which country you are in and which match or tournament is being played, because different broadcasters hold different rights at different times.
Quick answer
In most countries, live cricket is not on just one permanent station; it moves between a small group of sports networks that buy the rights series by series. The fastest way to know “which radio station the cricket is on” right now is usually:
- Check the official cricket board or tournament website/app (they list current radio partners and audio streams).
- Check the main national sports radio network in your country (for example, ABC/SEN in Australia, BBC/online alternatives in the UK, All India Radio/online streams around India).
Below are typical options by region so you have something concrete to try.
Common options by region
Note: These are examples that often carry cricket, not guarantees for every match.
- Australia
- ABC Sport / ABC Cricket (via the ABC Listen app and local AM/FM in season).
* SEN / SENZ (especially for international and domestic matches).
- UK & worldwide English online
- BBC radio often has rights domestically, but many listeners now use online alternatives when geo‑blocked.
* **Guerilla Cricket** streams ball‑by‑ball commentary online and is usually not geo‑blocked.
- India & South Asia
- All India Radio (Akashvani) sometimes carries international and big tournament games.
* Various online “cricket commentary” stations and apps (for example, services that aggregate Hindi/English cricket commentary streams).
- New Zealand
- SENZ and other local sports stations may cover home internationals and some domestic matches.
How to quickly find the right station for this match
Use this simple checklist each time there is a game on:
- Look up the specific match page on the official tournament or national board site (e.g., Cricket Australia, ICC, BCCI); they almost always list “radio/audio” options or link to an official live audio feed.
- Open your national sports radio app or website (ABC, SEN, BBC, All India Radio, etc.) and check today’s schedule or “Live” tab.
- If nothing is listed, try online-only cricket commentary like Guerilla Cricket or other internet stations that advertise “live cricket commentary” for that league or series.
Mini FAQ
- Why is it so hard to know one fixed station?
Because audio rights are sold per series/tournament and can move between broadcasters; sometimes only digital/online commentary is available.
- Is there a single global “cricket radio” station?
No. There are a few regular online commentary providers (like Guerilla Cricket and other fan/commentary streams), but no one global FM/AM station that has every match.
