No one can accuse SBS of playing it safe in its choice of commentators for the Ashes. The free-to-air broadcaster has called up some former Test mavericks to ensure some lively coverage for the five-Test series.
Stuart MacGill will play the hosting role in the Sydney studio and will be joined by Greg Matthews and Damien Martyn.
The outspoken Rodney Hogg will be the man on the ground with SBS putting together a one-hour highlights program from 5pm (AEST) on the previous day’s play.
The live commentary feed will be taken from England’s Sky Sports, whose team includes Shane Warne, Ian Botham, David Gower, Michael Atherton and Michael Holding.
FoxSports will tap into the same feed but will also broadcast a one-hour pre-game show from 7pm (AEST) each night.
FoxSports will have the familiar faces of former Australian cricketers Allan Border, Mark Waugh, Brendon Julian, Greg Blewett and Damien Fleming sharing their views.
For those unable to watch it on the box, the ABC has again put together a quality commentary team in cahoots with the BBC.
Recently-retired Test opener Matthew Hayden is a star addition to the line-up that also includes the likes of Jason Gillespie and Phil Tufnell.
