BBC cover ICC World Twenty20

BBC Radio 5 live sports extra and Radio 4 LW will spend the next two weeks broadcasting live commentary of cricket’s ICC World Twenty20 in the West Indies.

Jonathan Agnew, Michael Vaughan and Tony Cozier form part of the Test Match Special commentary team and they start with coverage of the two opening matches.

All of England’s games will be followed, starting with their match on Monday against the West Indies. The two stations will also have live commentary on all Super Eights matches, both semi-finals and the final of the men’s tournament. The women’s games will be picked up at the semi-finals stage.

Other names forming part of the team include former Windies player Sir Vivian Richards and Alison Mitchell – who will be reporting from St Lucia during the group stages, including Afghanistan’s opening match against India on Saturday.
