SEN and SENZ have secured the 2022 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup broadcast rights, allowing the stations to broadcast every match to sports fans throughout Australia and New Zealand.
Held in Australia and beginning on Sunday 16 October, the broadcast will be part of a joint production between SEN and the Channel 2 Group who are the ICC’s exclusive global audio rights holder.
The broadcast will also appear on the Channel 2 Group’s Digital 2 Sports platform globally.
SEN’s chief sports caller, Gerard Whateley, will be leading the charge in commentary, with further broadcasting talent to be announced in the coming weeks.
All eyes will be on the match between New Zealand v Australia, which will be extensively covered across SEN and SENZ on Saturday 22 October.
Ajay Sethi, chairman and MD of Channel 2 Group Corporation said, “I am very delighted that this prestigious sporting event like ICC T20 World Cup 2022 is taking place in Australia. I am also delighted that SEN will be creating world class audio commentary to reach 100 plus countries and 1.2 billion around the world from this world feed.”
In addition to airing on the SEN and SENZ airwaves, the tournament will also be broadcast across digital stations, the SEN app and the SEN website.
The latest broadcast rights precede the network’s coverage of the upcoming FIFA World Cup 2022 tournament from November 20th and the FIFA Women’s World Cup tournament in July 2023.
SEN National radio director, Sam Thompson said, “There is a real sense of anticipation for this tournament, and we are really excited to bring both our Australian and New Zealand audiences live coverage throughout the month of cricket.
“Given the popularity of cricket across both countries, I have no doubt that our listeners will enjoy our in-depth analysis and commentary. Pleasingly, this is yet another example of our dedication to broadcasting the biggest events both at home and internationally across both SEN and SENZ.”
