Sports Entertainment Network (SEN) is set to mark a significant broadcast milestone this June, delivering live coverage of the ICC World Test Championship (WTC) Final and the Australian Men’s Test tour of the West Indies — its 49th and 50th consecutive Australian men’s Tests broadcast across its platforms.

With the WTC Final scheduled for June 11–15 at Lord’s, SEN will provide live ball-by-ball coverage as Australia takes on South Africa in Test cricket’s ultimate showdown. Following that, SEN’s team will head to the Caribbean for Australia’s three-match Test series against the West Indies from June 26 to July 17.

SEN’s trusted commentary voices return

SEN’s broadcast will feature a seasoned commentary team led by Adam Collins and Damien Fleming, joined by Bharat Sundaresan, Jeremy Coney, and Daniel Norcross for the WTC Final. Collins and Sundaresan will also front the Caribbean coverage, with additional commentators to be confirmed.

This latest slate of broadcasts continues SEN’s rapid rise as a destination for live cricket commentary, underscoring its ongoing commitment to international coverage.

The New Ball returns for analysis and fan engagement

Popular pre-match program The New Ball — presented by Cobram Estate — will return during both the WTC Final and the West Indies tour. Hosted by Bharat Sundaresan and Tom Morris, the show will air ahead of each day’s play, delivering expert analysis, line-up previews, and in-depth discussion for cricket enthusiasts.

A landmark moment in SEN’s cricket journey

The WTC Final broadcast will be SEN’s 49th consecutive Australian men’s Test covered, with the West Indies series marking the 50th — a milestone reflecting the network’s sustained investment in cricket broadcasting since the start of its seven-year agreement with Cricket Australia.

“Our dedication to bringing the best of international cricket to fans is unwavering. Broadcasting the WTC Final and the Australian Men’s Test tour of the West Indies underscores our commitment to making cricket accessible and engaging for everyone. We are thrilled to continue this journey and look forward to an exciting summer of cricket in both the northern and southern hemispheres,” said Craig Hutchison, CEO of SEN.

Commercial support and future ambitions

The coverage is backed by major partner Henley Homes, with additional support from Tyrepower and imar insurance, reinforcing the commercial strength of SEN’s cricket programming.

Looking beyond the Caribbean, SEN is already gearing up for the 2025/26 Australian summer, which includes another marquee Men’s Ashes series — highlighting the network’s long-term vision to deliver premium cricket content year-round.

Where to listen

Cricket fans can follow every delivery of the WTC Final and the West Indies tour via SEN’s radio stations and digital platforms, with comprehensive programming designed to cater to traditional listeners and digital-first audiences alike.
