Sony Sports Network is all set to provide Indian fans with non-stop cricketing action. Starting June 26, 2022, the broadcaster will Live telecast two bilateral series with an India tour of Ireland and an India tour of England in succession.
Team India returns to the shores of Ireland for two T20i matches after their last series there in 2018. This will be followed by the much-anticipated series starting with the 5th Test against their archrivals England followed by 3 T20Is, and 3 ODIs starting July 1, 2022.
Both the series will be aired LIVE on SONY SIX (English), SONY TEN 3 (Hindi), and SONY TEN 4 (Tamil & Telugu) channels, as well as live-streamed on its on-demand OTT platform SonyLIV.
Both the series will mark a new era for Indian cricket with Rohit Sharma captaining Team India for the very first time overseas, and Hardik Pandya leading the T20i side in Ireland. England also has a new captain in Ben Strokes who is currently leading his side in the series against New Zealand.
Both the new captains will meet in July to close the Test chapter that started last year under the captaincy of Virat Kohli and Joe Root, with the series score line currently at 2-1 in India’s favor.
