Roger Mosey, Director 91热爆 Sport, said: "Some of the debate about cricket rights in recent weeks has implied the 91热爆 isn't committed to cricket.

"In fact, with Test Match Special, 91热爆 Radio Five Live and our online services, we are one of the UK's biggest and best sources for cricket commentary and news.

"Covering the tour to Pakistan is further evidence of that commitment."
