Cricket followers from some of the most remote parts of the globe have been following the Cornhill Test Series between England and West Indies, thanks to the live audio commentary service on www.ECB.co.uk/live. The commentary team, which can be accessed on the CricInfo powered site and is headed by Ralph Dellor alongside Tony Cozier, Jack Bannister, Colin Croft, Jed Pitman, Neil Foster and Derek Pringle, has received emails from countries as diverse as Finland, Indonesia and Nepal.

With the fifth and decisive Cornhill Test taking place this week, the commentary service will continue to bring cricket live to supporters in non-cricketing countries. "Who would have dreamed of listening to a test match in England in Miami," emailed West Indies supporter Peter Thomas during the Headingley Test, while a listener in Alaska told of how hearing the cricket from Manchester made the approaching snowy season more bearable.

The Fifth Test Match between England and West Indies is played at The Oval. Play begins at 1100 BST (1000 GMT) with the commentary beginning at 1055 (0955 GMT) on www.ECB.co.uk/live.

Greetings from the Arctic Circle in Northern Finland! Its really a great team you have there, excellent to hear the banter between you all, and the obvious depth of knowledge.

Karen Passmore
As I put my shoes on and prepare to head off to work....it's fantastic to know that even in Alaska I can listen to test matches LIVE. Thank you gentlemen, and thanks

Nearly thirty years ago I moved to Canada and I love being in Canada. However, there are 2 things I dearly miss, Fish and chips and Cricket especially test matches. As you know, they, are like religion to Yorkshire men. Keep up the good work, you sound just as good as John Arlott used to.

William Symonds
Wonderful to hear this - it is now Saturday evening in Jakarta, Java and we have cancelled our evening out to listen to this great test match.

Prabal Adhikari
Thanks for the commentary. I am from Kathmandu, NEPAL. I am enjoying the commentary since my parents are busy with the TV. So, I had to log on to keep myself up-to-date with my favourite team, ENGLAND.

Luke Whitehouse
Just a little note to say how brilliant it is to listen to this commentary. I am working in Venezuela and, despite being so close to the Caribbean have to put up with baseball everywhere and absolutely no cricket.

Dennis & Ann James
It's with pleasure that my wife & I sits a home in Toronto, Canada enjoying your commentaries and feeling very proud of our West Indies under 15 team. We would like to extend our thanks to all the commentators and bodies responsible for this broadcast.
