JioHotstar continues to strengthen its sports streaming portfolio by securing the exclusive digital rights for the upcoming England vs India five-Test series, set to begin on June 20 at Leeds. This latest deal means that Indian cricket fans will now be able to stream the highly anticipated series live on JioHotstar, in addition to the ongoing IPL 2025 and all ICC events already available on the platform.

The agreement has been reached with Sony Entertainment Network (Culver Max Entertainment Private Limited), which holds the primary rights for English cricket. According to Cricbuzz, Sony has agreed to sub-license the digital rights to JioHotstar while keeping the TV broadcast (linear rights) with its Sony Sports Network. An official announcement is expected later today.
The remaining Tests will be played in Birmingham (July 2), Lord’s (July 10), Manchester (July 23), and The Oval (July 31).
More England-India matches coming to JioHotstar
According to reports, the deal extends beyond the 2025 Test series. JioHotstar is expected to stream the 2026 white-ball series, which includes three ODIs and five T20Is scheduled during India’s tour of England next summer. This long-term arrangement means a much more hassle-free experience for the fans, who now don’t have to switch between OTT platforms to see their favourite team play.
Sony had earlier secured the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) rights for eight years, running until 2031. The ECB is believed to have played a role in facilitating this sub-licensing arrangement between Sony and Jio-Star.
