Watching cricket

There are a number of sources for cricket videos. Some are live stream and some replay past games. Some are free and some have a subscription fee.

The ICC has videos, mostly highlights, from games around the world.

Youtube

There are lots of cricket channels on Youtube and many live stream their matches, as well as archiving past matches. A nice feature is that live streamed matches typically have no advertising.

These below are for County Cricket. (The asterisk indicates those that live stream).

A good source for live streams is the reference site LiveTV which provides links to multiple sources besides Youtube. These streams typically are free with advertising. The feeds can be finicky to use with multiple popup ads to be closed and sometimes it is difficult to unmute the audio. (They also provide links to most popular sports around the world.)

WillowTV is a Canadian cable service for cricket matches around the world. It is available on most cable channels as well as on laptop, phone, tablet and on apps for Apple TV and FireTV. The cost is $8.95 per month. Video quality is usually 720p. They carry mostly Asian games but also carry some European and English games, particularly when they are playing Asian teams.

See the ECB website for County regular games, and for One Day Cup fixtures.
