England are world champions and one of the top test teams in the world, ideal opponents for this momentous occasion. It's a fantastic calendar of cricket on Star Sports starting with England's tour of India which will kickstart bilateral cricket for the year. We also look forward to broadcasting another season of IPL and the T20 World Cup. We have always taken pride in delivering innovative and compelling viewing experiences, so fans have a lot to look forward to."
