Remaining the home of the world’s most intensely fought and renowned international cricket series, BT Sport has renewed its UK rights deal to broadcast Australian men’s and women’s home cricket internationals until 2025.


The contract not only includes the forthcoming Ashes series in Australia but also includes the exclusive broadcast of four England tours over the next four years as well as the Dettol ODI and T20 tours scheduled for 2022. In addition, BT Sport will also show live coverage of all international tours of Australia. After this year’s Ashes, the Australia will take on New Zealand and Sri Lanka in a white ball series.
The renewed deal with Cricket Australia builds on BT Sport’s portfolio of cricket that includes exclusive broadcast rights of West Indies men’s and women’s domestic and international cricket in the Caribbean, and New Zealand's men’s and women’s home internationals.
Commenting on gaining rights for the Ashes and beyond, Simon Green, head of BT Sport, said: “We loved bringing the highs, lows and controversy of the Ashes to our viewers in 2017/18 and relish the opportunity to bring our viewers all the action from both a men’s and women’s Ashes in 2021/22. BT Sport’s cricket content has continued to grow since we signed our first rights deal with Cricket Australia, and we are delighted to be bringing more world class men’s and women’s cricket from Australia to fans across the UK.”
