England are in white-ball action this month as they face New Zealand in three T20 internationals and three one-day internationals.
It comes on the back of a 2-0 T20 series win over Ireland in Dublin in September for Harry Brook's side, and a mixed series against South Africa.
The first two T20 clashes against the Black Caps were held at Hagley Oval in Christchurch, with the first washed out and England winning the second by 65 runs.
The series finale is on October 23 at Eden Park in Auckland.
The two sides will then go toe-to-toe across three ODIs from October 26 to November 1 before attention turns to the upcoming Ashes series.
Here is all the information you need about how you can watch the action from New Zealand, live on TNT Sports and discovery+.

Important momentum-builder for England
After an indifferent run of form in 2025, the trip to New Zealand gives England a chance to build momentum against a formidable opponent.
They were beaten 2-1 in the ODI series at home to South Africa before rain washed out the third and final T20 clash, meaning that the series finished in a 1-1 draw.
There were positives from the visit of the Proteas, but it was, ultimately, a frustrating experience.
A victory over Ireland was expected but a proper test now awaits them in New Zealand.
With the Ashes fast approaching, an impressive showing will boost morale ahead of the five-Test showdown in Australia.
