TalkSPORT will cover South Africa vs England in 2019-20

TalkSPORT have secured the commentary rights to England's 2019-20 of South Africa.

The broadcaster, which struck a major blow to the BBC by claiming the rights to the upcoming trips to Sri Lanka and West Indies this winter, will now be the only UK outlet carrying live ball-by-ball updates from overseas England tours for the next two years.

"Following England’s emphatic victory at the Oval and an emotional goodbye to Alastair Cook this week, we’re delighted to have won these rights in another big win for talkSPORT," said Wireless chief executive Scott Taunton.

"This investment is a further commitment from us to this great game and these upcoming winter tours are set to be just as exciting as this golden summer of cricket."

England are scheduled to play four Test matches, three one-day internationals and three T20Is during the tour.
