Cricket fans in the United Kingdom will not be taking their commentary from the phalanx of Baggy Green alumni who populate the local broadcasts Down Under or the ‘world feed’ that is made available to global rights holders, with TNT Sports putting together its own hybrid model.

Three members of the triumphant touring squad of 2010/11 - the last English side to win the urn away from home - will help bring the action to viewers, with Cook joining Graeme Swann and Steven Finn in front of the microphone.
