After an absence of eight years, the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is back and fans are searching for ways to enjoy the action all over the world. Eight of the best teams will compete from February 19 through March 9, 2025 in venues in Pakistan and the UAE.

Access to live coverage will depend on where you are located, so we have provided this simple guide to find the appropriate channel or stream for where you live. 

Watching in South Asia

If you’re in South Asia, there are some great options to see every match that will be competed. 

JioStar Network is providing coverage in this area with a unique setup. They will be streaming a match on 16 different feeds with commentary in 9 languages – English, Hindi, Marathi, Haryanvi, Bengali, Bhojpuri, Tamil, Telugu and Kannada. 

You can stream through JioHotstar for coverage online, or watch on Star Sports and Sports18 channels to watch on your television.

In Pakistan, viewers will find the cricket matches on TV through PTV and Ten Sports, while the Myco and Tamasha apps will provide streaming coverage. This is the first time this tournament has been hosted in Pakistan since 1996 which makes it an even more special event for local followers.

Cricket enthusiasts following platforms like Cricmatch official will find comprehensive coverage details through regional broadcasters. Bangladesh viewers can access matches through Nagorik TV and T Sports on television, or stream via the Toffee app.​

Coverage Across North America

Fans throughout the USA and Canada watch WillowTV, the main television source for all 15 contests, with live English and Hindi commentary options. 

Fans can use the Willow by Cricbuzz app to watch all the contests on mobile devices, which is great – if someone is always on the go. Another option is FuboTV. It includes WillowTV and frequently has free trials for new subscribers. 

A few things that are relevant for viewers in North America: 

• Most contests will start around 4:00 am eastern 
• There’s pre-match and post-match coverage

Options for European Cricket Fans

Viewers located in the UK and Ireland can access coverage on Sky Sports. The tournament will be broadcasted across several Sky channels including Sky Sports Cricket, Sky Sports Main Event, and Sky Sports Action. If you have a Sky subscription and just want to stream the matches, we recommend downloading the Sky Go app. 

NOW TV also gives you the option of purchasing a 24-hour day pass for £14.99, or access for the whole month for £34.99. If you are looking for audio commentary of all the matches, coverage of the tournament will also be on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra. 

Australia and New Zealand Viewers

In Australia, the exclusive broadcast rights belong to Amazon Prime Video. The service includes a 30-day free-trial that will allow you to enjoy all matches and other included benefits associated with the service. Once the 30-day free-trial is over, the monthly subscriptions will be AU$9.99 or AU$79 for the full year.

Sky Sport NZ will also be broadcasting the coverage in New Zealand. The matches will be available to stream on the Now and SkyGo apps, as well live on Sky Sport NZ subscription television.
