Jim Maxwell here.
As the ABC celebrates ninety years I reflect and acknowledge the huge contribution that broadcast cricket has added to our sense of being Australian. We are proud of our best cricketers, and the wireless has allowed us to enjoy their performances.
The Summer of Cricket is returning to the ABC and thereâs a huge field of ways for you to immerse yourself in Australiaâs national sport. You can hear every ball and every wicket, live and commercial free on the ABC listen app.
With ABC SPORT once again delivering quality ball-by-ball coverage of every international fixture all summer long, join me â The Voice of Summer â alongside expert commentators, analysts and special guests for every Australia menâs and womenâs test match, one day international and T20 international.
Hereâs to a great Summer,
