Sony Ten 3 is an Indian sports channel owned by Sony Pictures Networks India. Launched in 2010 as Ten Cricket by the Ten Sports network (then owned by ZEEL), it was renamed to Ten 3 in 2016, and then to Sony Ten 3 in 2017 after SPN acquired the Ten Sports network from ZEEL. It is a primarily Hindi-language channel, similar to competitor Star Sports 1 Hindi.

Zee rebranded the Ten Sports network on 29 March 2016, introducing a new slogan, Never stop. Ten Sports was renamed to Ten 1, Ten Action to Ten 2, Ten Cricket to Ten 3 and Ten HD to Ten 1 HD. The new logo style was on the basis of that of the now-defunct Ten Golf HD, which had rebranded in October 2015 after converting from a standard-definition (SD) channel into a high-definition (HD) channel.
