BBC Test Match Special to commentate on England’s Pakistan tour
BBC Test Match Special will broadcast ball-by-ball commentary of England’s Test tour of Pakistan after securing audio rights for the series.
A team led by BBC cricket correspondent Jonathan Agnew will broadcast from Multan from Monday, 7 October, with two further Tests starting on 15 and 24 October.
Commentators Aatif Nawaz and Simon Mann will be joined by Ashes-winning bowler Steven Finn, former Pakistan captain Ramiz Raja and World Cup winner and Multan Sultans spin coach Alex Hartley, while Andy Zaltzman will be scorer.
The action will start at 06:00 BST each day, while there will be a daily podcast on BBC Sounds after each day’s play and extensive coverage on the BBC Sport website and app.
England travel to Pakistan having won both of their summer series against West Indies and Sri Lanka, with captain Ben Stokes returning to their ranks having recovered from a hamstring injury.
