Live radio coverage of Indian Test series
Sports Entertainment Network (SEN) will have Australian and Indian cricket fans covered for the highly anticipated Border-Gavaskar Trophy clash, broadcasting the entire series live from India.
Every ball will be dissected and analysed throughout SEN’s radio and digital platforms. This includes live broadcasts of all four Test Matches on SEN 1170am, SENQ 693am, SEN 1116am, SEN Mount Gambier 1629am, SEN WA, SEN Tassie 1629am, SEN Top End 1611am, SEN Fanatic (DAB+ Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane) and the SEN App.
Acclaimed commentator Adam Collins (pictured) will lead the team throughout the series, with SEN’s chief sports caller Gerard Whateley joining the action live from India for the Second Test in Delhi.
The grand final of the Millicent Bowling Club Men’s Championship Pairs was played on January 22.
Leading up to the grand final, 32 players took part in the competition with the games being played over 15 ends with the two and walk system.
The four teams reaching the semi finals were, Peter Varcoe and Andre Reinders against Peter Scanlon and John Buhlmann, with Peter Scanlon and John Buhlmann going into the grand final.
In the second game, Kym Stewart and Steve Carnellor took on Ben Masters and Wayne Ross, with Ben and Wayne winning this game and earning a place in the grand final.
In the grand final by the third end both teams were three all, but the Wayne Ross/Ben Masters combination then took the lead. By the 11th end the Peter Scanlon/ John Buhlmann team were only one shot behind sitting at 8/9, but then the Ross/Masters team, in the last four ends, were able to score eight shots to the Scanlon/ Buhlmann team’s five. This gave Wayne Ross and Ben Masters the game and the title of Men’s Pairs Champions for 2022/23 season.
MEN’S CHAMPIONSHIP PAIRS:
Indian fans can look forward to dedicated insight on their team, with the likes of Ravi Shastri, the esteemed former national coach, and Harsha Bhogle, India’s ‘voice of cricket’, joining SEN as experts. Award-winning Indian-Australian writer Bharat Sundaresan will also return.
The Australian’s chief cricket writer Peter Lalor will provide a critical lens on the Australians, with International callers Nikesh Rughani and Daniel Norcross rounding out the ball-by-ball team.
SEN Ccontent manager Julian Bayard said this was undoubtedly one of the most anticipated series over the summer of cricket.
“We are thrilled that our team will be on the ground in India to call all the action,” he said. “We have assembled some of the biggest names in the business who will provide both Australian and Indian fans all the insights and analysis throughout the series.”
Adam Collins said for a generation of players and fans, this series was seen as the Final Frontier for Australian cricket.
“And it will be no different for Pat Cummins’ side in conditions that will challenge every discipline throughout each session of this marquee contest,” Collins said. “So, there can be no better time for SEN to visit India for the first time after covering every ball of
Australia’s tours to Pakistan and Sri Lanka last year. We can’t wait.”
