Cricket World Cup

Thought I'd start a discussion on this.

Anyone going to any of the games? Fortunate to "catch a million"?

Didn't get any tickets personally, too hard to work around work with them, but watching all the games live.

Favorites?

Definitely the Blackcaps, if they fire through the knockouts, there is no reason they can't win.

Obviously Aus and SA too, but not going to contemplate that.

  • Come on Aussie come on 😃

    • After yesterday, it'll be interesting when our two countries meet in Auckland!

  • Bought tickets to the Wellington Quarter Final and India vs Ireland (Hamilton) and India vs Zimbabwe (Auckland) games, but unsure how I'm going to get to Hamilton from here yet.

    India have no chance of winning 2 cups in a row, I think Aussies vs Blackcaps final would be a done deal - unsure who will win that one though….

      Sounds like you need Manabus bro!

      It's interesting, because India won the last WC on the back of their batsmen alone, and this time is no different…

      NZ are capable, but need to really play well if they are to win, no off days really.

  • Whats the cheapest option to watch ALL cricket world cup matches live on tv? (good quality)

    • I use a family members sky account and stream it on Isky (Skygo).

      If you know someone who is subscribed, all you need is the account number and DOB and you can use it at no cost.

      Otherwise, there try Acestream, but I'm not going to go into that in too much detail.

  • Found out the chapeat way is to get an Indian VPN and subscribe to Star Cricket channel for a couple of bucks you watch the entire world cup live

    Now I just realised PIA VPN that was on here not long ago doesn't do India :(

    Need to find a VPN now!!!

    • Try Hola, let me know if that is any good for India. It uses other users as exit points, so it may be a bit hit and miss, but it's free.

  • I used bola free version and it was super slow in the past. Will try again see what happens

  • Just used unlocator

    seems to be working so far! Free 7 day trial and $3 for star sports subscription? Thats a bargain!

    • Not too bad bro, is that a weekly price?

      • Unlocator is Free for 7 days (or I can pay $4.95USD for one month).

        Star Sports World Cup Cricket subscription is 120 rupees for the entire World Cup - which is about $3NZD.

        • Not bad at all! $3, that is ridiculous! What is the stream quality like?

        • @Shaw:

          Its SD clear and doesn't stop to buffer on my slow ADSL connection, but not HD unfortunately.

          Wish I did this yesterday for the NZ vs AUS game - Might be a IND vs NZ Final at the MCG!

        • @singh:

          Interesting, it costs RS. 120 in India, and Rs. 1200 everywhere else they have rights to stream.

          Would be interesting to see if you are able to purchase in India (At the reduced price), but stream in Germany for example.

          NZ vs India final would be fun, especially with an Aussie crowd.

          Just ordered the Rs. 120 package for the CWC, streaming replays fine from my German server using the Indian sub, will test it on the live game in an hour and see how that goes.
