The BBC And RTÉ All-Ireland Hurling Final Punditry Teams Are In

Tickets for this Sunday's All-Ireland hurling final have taken on an aura akin to the famous 'golden ticket' from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.

With Tipperary in the final for the first time in six years and Cork chasing their first Liam MacCarthy in 20 years, tickets are effectively gold dust.

Cork's allocation was snapped up instantly, and Tipp fans have mobilised quickly, too.

It means that plenty of disappointed fans will be watching from home and, just as last year, they will have two options to choose from on the TV.

Along with the traditional RTÉ broadcast, BBC will show the game live on BBC Two Northern Ireland, giving viewers a dilemma of where to watch the game.

Though many traditionalists may plump for RTÉ, the punditry lineup on offer on BBC is certainly enticing.

Their counterparts at the BBC have put together a mega punditry team for the All-Ireland hurling final.

Radio commentary will also be available on RTÉ's Sunday Sport, while Raidio na Gaeltachta will provide Irish-language radio commentary.

One of the highlights of All-Ireland hurling final day is The Sunday Game highlights show and, as per tradition, that will get underway at 9:30pm on RTÉ 2.

A mouthwatering punditry lineup is on offer, with Jacqui Hurley joined by Anthony Daly, Brendan Cummins, Donal Óg Cusack, Henry Shefflin, Joe Canning and Ursula Jacob in the studio.

No matter how you take in the final on Sunday, it's set to be a mega occasion - and you can't really go too far wrong with any of the pundits on duty.

The real action gets underway when Cork v Tipperary throws in at 3:30pm on Sunday afternoon.
