Sun pitches a sporting deal

Readers of The Sun, The Times and The Sunday Times can now watch all the cricketing action in near-live clips of the England team, including the next Ashes series.

Members of all News UK subscription packages, both print and digital titles, are already enjoying video coverage of Premier League and FA Cup football, as well Aviva Premiership rugby.

This latest offering will give those members near-live international cricket coverage at home, work or on the move via PC, smartphone or tablet.

Mike Darcey, CEO of publisher News UK, said: “This deal further strengthens our great sporting offer built around our world-class journalism. 

“Thrilling football and rugby action is now joined by England international cricket clashes, so a subscription to one of our titles is a must for sports fans who want to keep up with the game in the digital era.”
