Cricket isn’t just watched at a World Cup — it’s heard. And for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026, the soundtrack promises to be as rich and riveting as the action on the field.
The ICC has rolled out an all-star commentary panel for the 10th edition of the tournament, which gets underway on February 7 across India and Sri Lanka. With 55 matches packed into a month-long festival of sixes, yorkers, and last-over drama, ICC.TV’s world feed will deliver a seamless, high-quality broadcast experience to fans across the globe.
Leading the charge are some of the most recognisable voices in cricket. Ravi Shastri’s infectious energy, Nasser Hussain’s sharp analysis, Ian Smith’s poetic crescendos, and Ian Bishop’s smooth storytelling will once again anchor the global feed. These are voices that have narrated cricket’s biggest moments — and they’re ready to do it all over again.
Adding a modern edge to the panel is an impressive group of former T20 World Cup winners and white-ball specialists. Aaron Finch, Dinesh Karthik, Kumar Sangakkara, Samuel Badree, Robin Uthappa, and Carlos Brathwaite bring fresh insight from the dressing room to the commentary box — players who’ve lived the pressure of this format and thrived under it.
What makes this panel even more compelling is the presence of current and recently active international stars. Reigning World Test Championship–winning captain Temba Bavuma will lend his calm authority and tactical understanding, while 2014 T20 World Cup winner Angelo Mathews returns to the global stage in a new role, trading pads for a microphone.
The depth doesn’t stop there. From master tacticians like Eoin Morgan and Michael Atherton, to fast-bowling greats Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis, Dale Steyn, and Shaun Pollock, the commentary team blends eras, continents, and perspectives. Familiar broadcasters and presenters ensure rhythm and continuity, while newer voices add freshness to the coverage.
ICC.TV’s broadcast slate will feature pre-match shows, innings interval analysis, post-match wrap-ups, and daily highlights, capturing the pulse of the tournament right through to the knockout stages and the grand final on March 8.
In a tournament where moments are made in seconds, it’s these voices that give them life — turning boundaries into memories and wickets into history. The ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 won’t just be played across India and Sri Lanka. It’ll be narrated by the very people who define the game.
