TNT SPORTS AND 5 AGREE DEAL WITH CRICKET AUSTRALIA FOR THE UPCOMING SEASON DOWN UNDER
England’s white-ball tour of Australia this winter and March’s 150th Anniversary Test Match between cricket’s oldest adversaries will be broadcast live and exclusively on TNT Sports. Public service broadcaster 5 will bring the action to a wider UK audience through exclusive highlights packages on its main channel and streaming service following each fixture of England’s limited-overs tour.
In addition to the three-match One Day International series and five T20 internationals in November and December, and the much-anticipated 150th Anniversary Test Match between Australia and England at the MCG, TNT Sports will also broadcast New Zealand’s four-Test series in Australia this coming December and January.
Furthermore, TNT Sports will bring fans live coverage of the three-match One Day International series between Australia’s women and their New Zealand counterparts from across the Tasman Sea in March.
The new agreement with Cricket Australia further strengthens TNT Sports’ cricket offering this winter, complementing an existing portfolio that includes all of New Zealand’s home internationals and India’s home international fixtures, including a five-Test series against the touring Australians in early 2027.
Production plans for matches involving England’s fixtures in Australia will be announced in due course.
