Colours of Cricket

Auteur(s): SBS
  • Résumé

  • Australia’s diverse South Asian communities are united by one thing, our love of cricket. Colours of Cricket is a unique look at the South Asian diaspora and how we’re changing the face of cricket in Australia. Over eight episodes, hear from international stars, commentators, sports historians, fans and community players. Find out how cricket is helping new migrants feel at home in Australia and breaking down social barriers, how players from the subcontinent are keeping club cricket alive, and why kids from the Indian subcontinent are underrepresented in the big leagues. Colours of Cricket is a collaborative project from SBS Radio's South Asian language programs; SBS Bangla, Gujarati, Hindi, Malayalam, Nepali, Punjabi, Sinhala, Tamil, and SBS Urdu.
