BBC Sport

ECB Broadcast Partner

In 2025 the ECB and BBC announced an extension to their strategic partnership which will see the broadcaster continue to screen England Men’s and Women’s international highlights and live coverage of The Hundred till 2028. The deal will see highlights of England Men’s and Women’s internationals broadcast across BBC TV, BBC iPlayer and the BBC Sport website and also includes digital clips.
Live coverage of The Hundred men's and women's tournaments will also remain on BBC Sport each year, covering eight double-headers each season, including the opening matches and the finals across TV and iPlayer. This will see more live women’s games screened on the BBC than previously.
The extension follows the success of the previous deal which saw live cricket return to BBC TV in 2020 for the first time in more than 20 years. The BBC also has a four-year deal for live audio coverage of all England's home Tests, one-day internationals and IT20s, along with matches across the men’s county cricket and women’s domestic season.
