The new Sky Sports: Watch Cricket as never before on Sky Sports Cricket
Friday 4 August 2017 08:19, UK
Watch cricket as never before on our new dedicated cricket channel this summer as part of the biggest ever change to Sky Sports.
From today, viewers can tune into Sky Sports Cricket to enjoy the best live action with award-winning commentary and analysis, as well as brand new shows and documentaries.
Sky Sports will be better than ever as we serve up unmissable live sport across 10 channels but you won't need to do anything - the change will happen automatically for existing customers.
It all begins today when we'll bring you new programmes and live coverage of England's Women's World Cup semi-final against South Africa and the third Test between England and South Africa.
It's all part of our commitment to cricket - between now and 2024, Sky Sports will be the only place to watch live coverage of all England home Tests, ODIs and T20s, women's matches and county cricket.
