Champions Trophy 2009 Live on BBC Radio

BBC will air the live commentary of the two semi finals and final match of the ongoing ICC Champions Trophy 2009 from South Africa. BBC has got the radio commentary right of the two games. So, English cricket fans would now be able to know what is happening in South Africa even when they are in work. Sky Sports has been covering the tournament live for the England cricket fans, but there has been no radio commentary or highlights on Channel Five that generally shows the highlights of England’s home series.



The decision to cover the semi finals and final came in the wake of England’s surprising performance in Champions Trophy 2009 so far. England defeated Sri Lanka and South Africa to ensure their place in the semi finals. Though England suffered a crushing defeat in the third group game against New Zealand, cricket fans in England are still eagerly waiting to know if England can make it to the final and win the title for the first time in the history of Champions Trophy. BBC Radio’s test match special will cover the three matches.
