The broadcast of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 is part of a long-term deal with Channel 2 Group Corp, ICC's Global Audio Rights Partner, who hold exclusive rights to sub-license audio rights to ICC events until 2023.

The deal will ensure that TMS covers all the ICC's major events through to the 2023 Cricket World Cup in India - including the Women's World Cup in New Zealand in 2021 and the men's and women's ICC World Twenty20 events.

ICC Chief Executive David Richardson said: "Next year is going to be as big as it gets as fans look forward to the ICC Cricket World Cup with anticipation.

That the ball-by-ball coverage of the tournament will be broadcast on BBC Test Match Special is great news, it is part of the fabric of our game and has tremendous reach on multiple platforms across the UK."
