Sky Sports announces new long-term deals with three international cricket boards.

Sky Sports has agreed long-term deals with three international cricket boards as they increase their coverage of live Test cricket.

The sports channel has also secured six more England overseas tours, including the Ashes next year, England's home Tests, One-Day Internationals, Twenty20 International matches, ICC events, and county and women's matches.

"The Ashes is one of world sport's greatest events and we can now guarantee the next three series, home and away," said Sky Sports MD Barney Francis. "Test cricket has always been core to Sky Sports and it continues this winter with the start of a six-year deal with India.

"Then, as England look to take the Test crown back from South Africa our viewers can see their next two series in South Africa. These deals give our viewers great live cricket guaranteed for years ahead; our cricket schedule is simply stronger than ever with England at home and on Tour, the leading ICC events, the major Test nations and a depth of County cricket, a lineup of live cricket right through the calendar."

In all, Sky Sports has secured 16 new sports rights deals over the past 18 months.
