Sky Sports has secured the rights to broadcast all seven matches of England's one-day international tri-series featuring Pakistan and Sri Lanka, with coverage beginning this October across Sky Sports and NOW.

The agreement between Sky Sports and the Pakistan Cricket Board ensures complete live coverage of the tournament, which will be staged in Lahore and Rawalpindi throughout the month.

The format sees each nation face the other twice in the group stage, with the top two finishers advancing to a final scheduled for October 31.

England's squad for the tour has been named as: Harry Brook (captain), Gus Atkinson, Sonny Baker, Tom Banton, James Coles, Jordan Cox, Mason Crane, Henry Crocombe, Sam Curran, Liam Dawson, Ben Duckett, Will Jacks, Jamie Overton, Adil Rashid, Joe Root and Josh Tongue.

Brook's side will open their campaign against Pakistan in Rawalpindi on October 20, before travelling to face Sri Lanka at the same venue two days later on October 22.

This tri-series forms a crucial part of England's World Cup preparation, with the 2027 50-over tournament set to take place across South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia.

Brook's squad arrives in Pakistan on the back of an impressive summer campaign. England secured 2-1 series victories at home against both India and Sri Lanka, demonstrating strong form in the 50-over format heading into the autumn tour.

The broadcast deal reinforces Sky Sports' comprehensive cricket portfolio. The network holds exclusive rights to all England men's and women's international cricket, alongside domestic competition coverage. Sky will also show England's tour of South Africa this winter and the Ashes on home soil next summer.
