1st Pakistan-England T20, on Sky at 3pm UK time, so the game probably starts 30-60 minutes after that.

Indeed it’s a 3.30 start UK time (I hadn’t realised its being played in Karachi) so obviously a floodlit match. 25 years ago I’d have been looking to attend the match as I was working there during the mid-late 90’s. Pakistan’s home ground might give them the edge!!

Excellent win for England. There are 6 more T20 games coming up over the next couple of weeks, next one on Thursday.
Good to see Alex Hales back in the side, better late than never...

Does anyone know of any free streaming sites to watch T20 please?

Go for footybite.com, cricfree.tv or buffstreams.tv - you may need a VPN for the last two.

Unfortunately, the weather in Australia is ruining this T20 World Cup.

Yes, every time I go to the BBC sports pages throughout the day today it's nothing but RAIN and cancellations. Not good for team mentality at all.

Are you still in Vietnam? A friend is heading there shortly for work and can't do without his rugby - would be interesting to hear if the links work with or without a VPN.

[EDIT] Another "go to site" for schedules etc. is https://www.wheresthematch.com/ - very useful.

Hi, just got back to Asia after a 5 month tour of Europe with my young daughter, but we actually live in Cambodia, not Vietnam, although we're only 20 minutes from the Vietnamese border....

Thanks a lot for the links - will try them today if a match is actually played

Just watched the last 20 over first day of the Pakistan v England test match, a record breaking day.
England 506 for 4 off 75 overs a record score on the first day of a test match.
4 batsmen scored over 100, Brook not out 101, nearly broke the record for the fastest test match century.
Stokes came in at the end scored 34 off of 15 balls.
The final 20 overs were like watching a one day match.

The series of test matches of England versus Pakistan, has finished England won all three test the first country to do this This England team have broken a few records. The most exciting is their scoring rate, higher averages than most 50 over matches, they have revitalised the interest in test match cricket.
