News Image
Sky and Channel 4 have striked a deal to make England's ICC Men's T20 World Cup Final available to all the nation.

England's ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Final against Pakistan will be shown on free to air television after Sky struck a deal with Channel 4 to make the match available to the nation, enabling all the UK & Ireland to watch this sporting spectacle.

England's bid to lift the trophy for a second time will be shown live on Sky Showcase - available in all Sky homes - and on Channel 4, Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Cricket. All channels will broadcast Sky Sports' coverage which includes the award-winning commentary team of Ian Ward and former England captains Nasser Hussain, Michael Atherton and Eoin Morgan.

This is the latest partnership between Sky and Channel 4 to make a key sporting moment available to the nation. Previous events include the iconic 2019 men’s super-over victory against New Zealand and the final race of the 2021 Formula 1 Championship in Abu Dhabi.

Jonathan Licht, Managing Director, Sky Sports said: "We know the importance of this game, so we are pleased to be able to share this great sporting moment with our whole nation thanks to our strong relationship with Channel 4. Whether you’re supporting England or Pakistan, this will be one to remember."
