Sky will reportedly be showing free-to-air highlights of the Ashes series in Australia via their channel Pick TV.

The channel, which is available through Sky, Freeview, Virgin Media and Freesat platforms, is said to carry an one-hour highlights programme presented by Charles Colvile.

The show, which will air at 10pm every day during the tournament, comes following the broadcasters' deal with Cricket Australia to secure live and highlights rights, according to the Daily Mail.

The first Ashes Test between England and Australia gets underway on Thursday in Brisbane.
