TNT Sports & 5 to show England cricket tour of Australia

TNT Sports and 5 have agreed a deal to show the England men’s cricket team’s white-ball tour of Australia this winter.

TNT Sports will show the three ODIs and five T20s live over November and December, while 5 will provide free-to-air highlights on linear and its streaming service. The two broadcasters are now both part of Paramount Skydance, following its acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery. 

The agreement with Cricket Australia also extends to TNT Sports airing New Zealand’s four-Test series in Australia this December and January, plus the 150th anniversary test match between England and Australia in March. The broadcaster will also show Australia Women’s ODI series v New Zealand in March. 

The production plans for the England white-ball tour will be announced in due course.
