Banned Test opener David Warner will be a voice on Channel Nine's television coverage of Australia's one-day international series against England next week.

Warner, who is preparing to make a return to the playing field in the coming weeks firstly in Canada and then in Darwin, will join Nine's commentary team for Australia's clash against England in Cardiff on Saturday.

That game will be the second of a five-ODI, one-T20 International tour a depleted Australian side, led by new captain Tim Paine and new coach Justin Langer, is playing in the United Kingdom. After victories in two warm-up games this week, the series begins proper on Wednesday at The Oval.

Four of Australia's five ODIs in England will be broadcast on 9GEM, but the second match of the series will be shown on Nine's main channel. The one-off T20 at Edgbaston will also be shown on 9GEM.

"Dave is the best one-day and T20 batsman of the past decade so he's perfectly placed to join our coverage for the UK series," Nine's director of sport Tom Malone said.

"People have tried to paint Dave as the villain in all this, but he's been hurting as much as the others.

"We've had a professional relationship with Dave for five years now we've always found him to be a pretty normal and humble bloke. He just wants to atone for his mistakes and move on - I hope Australia gives all of them that chance."

Warner was suspended for 12 months for his role in the Cape Town ball-tampering scandal earlier this year (captain Steve Smith and opener Cameron Bancroft were also banned) and has been barred from holding any leadership position for the rest of his career.

His sanctions do not extend to overseas domestic leagues or Australian Premier Cricket, paving the way for his return with the Winnipeg Hawks in the inaugural Global T20 tournament in Canada later this month before a brief stint in the Northern Territory Strike League in July.

While Nine will no longer broadcast cricket during the Australian summer, the network's association with cricket has not ended completely having signed a deal in 2013 to broadcast Australia's 2015 and 2019 Ashes tours to the UK, along with ODI and T20 series the Aussies play on British soil.

Cricket Australia signed a new $1.182 billion, six-year agreement with the Seven Network and Fox Sports earlier this year.

Australia's limited overs matches in England have traditionally been played before or, as was the case in 2015, immediately after the Ashes Tests.

But given next year's World Cup will be staged in the UK prior to the 2019 Ashes series, it was decided to move the white-ball games forward to this year to provide some crucial match practice ahead of the showpiece event.
