England to tour Pakistan for Three Tests in October

England will tour Pakistan for the second time in two years, announcing a three-Test series in Multan, Karachi, and Rawalpindi in October.

England's first Test tour of Pakistan in 17 years took place in 2022, where Ben Stokes’s team won the series 3-0 at the same venues they will visit this year.


The tour will start just a week after England's home summer programme ends on September 29, following their white-ball series against Australia. The first Test in Multan will begin on October 7.

The second Test will be held in Karachi from October 15, and the series will conclude with the third Test in Rawalpindi starting on October 24.

Richard Gould, chief executive officer of the England and Wales Cricket Board, said: "We're really excited to be returning to Pakistan for this three-match men's Test tour in October. Our last men's Test tour of Pakistan produced some memorable matches and I'm sure fans can look forward to more exciting cricket across this forthcoming series."

England also have three Tests against New Zealand scheduled for December and limited-overs assignments against the West Indies in November and India in the new year.

Match schedule:

  • 7-11 October 2024 – First Test, Multan
  • 15-19 October 2024 – Second Test, Karachi
  • 24-28 October 2024 – Third Test, Rawalpindi

Disney turns to TikTok after its reported £745 million OpenAI deal collapses

  • Disney and TikTok have signed a global partnership allowing creators to use clips from franchises including Marvel, Star Wars and Pixar.
  • The deal follows the collapse of Disney's reported £745 million ($1 billion) licensing agreement with OpenAI's AI video tool, Sora.
  • Analysts say the partnership reflects a broader shift towards creator-led content and fan engagement.

Disney has found a new way to put its biggest franchises in front of younger audiences, months after its reported £745 million ($1 billion) partnership with OpenAI came to an end.

The entertainment giant has signed a global agreement with TikTok that will allow creators to legally use clips from Disney-owned films and television shows, including Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar and Toy Story, in their short-form videos. The partnership will launch as a pilot programme in the US before expanding to other markets, with selected videos also appearing on Verts, Disney's own short-form video platform within Disney+.
