Sunday delivers a buffet of top-level sport across the UK, with cricket's fast-paced The Hundred dominating the domestic schedule, the World Matchplay darts final concluding in Blackpool, the Hungarian Grand Prix offering a key moment in the F1 title race and the Tour de France finishing on the Champs-Élysées.
The Hundred: second round at Old Trafford and Trent Bridge
Manchester Super Giants host Birmingham Phoenix at Old Trafford, with the women's fixture first on the turf and live on Sky Sports Cricket from 10.45am (and on Sky Sports Main Event at 11.00am).

At Trent Bridge, Trent Rockets Women take on London Spirit Women on BBC Two from 2.15pm, while the corresponding men's contest is shown on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Cricket from 5.30pm and on BBC Two at 6.00pm.
Darts, F1 and cycling headline evening and afternoon slots
The World Matchplay reaches its climax at the Winter Gardens in Blackpool, where the two winners from Saturday's semi-finals will contest the title.

Commonwealth Games and Tour de France draw attention
Back on domestic screens, the Commonwealth Games action in Glasgow is being shown on TNT Sports 2 from 8.30am, while the Tour de France closes in Paris with the finale on the Champs-Élysées on TNT Sports 1 from 2.30pm — with Tadej Pogacar poised to complete a fifth victory that would equal the record.

It is a Sunday where fans can flit between formats — from the short, high-octane bursts of The Hundred to the strategic, long-distance chess of Grand Tour cycling, and the theatrical tension of a darts final under the Blackpool lights. Broadcasters have spread the action across free-to-air and subscription channels, offering multiple entry points for viewers across the country.
For supporters planning a viewing schedule, the day provides both domestic rivalry and international storylines: a chance to catch rising stars in the Hundred, a championship pivot in Formula One and the ceremonial, historic close to Europe's biggest bike race.
