The BBC announces its coverage for Wimbledon.

A surprise to nobody, Clare Balding takes over from Sue Barker as lead host. Isa Guha will continue to present the start of each day's play.

Today at Wimbledon has survived the axe, despite reports to the contrary, and has a new timeslot of 9PM and a new host in Qasa Alom. I believe this will be Alom's debut as a BBC Sport presenter, though he has reported from last year's Commonwealth Games and more. Let's hope the programme actually gets broadcast at all this year.

This also means coverage is now on BBC One until the later time of 9PM.

The only new name I see in the commentary teams is doubles legend Sania Mirza; I can't see any notable absentees but someone might have escaped my mind. Boris Becker unsurprisingly does not return after his time in prison and subsequent deportation. Andrew Cotter is listed second, behind Andrew Castle and ahead of Sam Smith, so would be my favourite to cover the Women's Singles final. Andy Stevenson will replace Clare Balding as the wheelchair singles finals host on the mornings of finals weekend.
