[Shantanu Upadhyay]

Cricket will be back on All India Radio (AIR), the national radio broadcaster, after a gap of nearly five years. On Tuesday, the BCCI announced it had signed a radio rights deal for two years with AIR, and according to the contract, AIR will start live audio commentary from South Africa's tour of India, which begins this weekend, until August 2021. The coverage will also include select men's and women's domestic matches, such as the Ranji Trophy final, and games in the Women's Challenger Series, Duleep Trophy, Deodhar Trophy, the Irani Cup and the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy.
