Cricket On Tv - In The Uk ( lack of )

[The_gas]

Well chaps the drought of cricket on sky and c4 has started. What do you plan to do with your time? If im correct, the next time england are on sky is toward the end of november when they play Zim. And then its off to South Africa. I'm missing live cricket badly :crying

Thank god for football :cool:

Hindsight tells me im not sure if this is in the right section, only time will tell.

Im not sure Zim v England is even on Sky! It doesnt seem to be on the website in the Sky Live section. Theres India v Aus on Setanta if you fancy paying ?15 per test match and also some Pakistan v Sri Lanka on ARY Digital if you have that (even if like me you dont have it, it can be worth trying sometimes as ive seen it on for free when Cricket is on, same with Setanta - the mess it up sometimes).

[vibs89]

Anyone know what channel ARY digital is on Sky?

[jamesdriscoll]

That was when I had cable. When we changed to digital we got Sky instead. Hopefully I can find some cricket on there, forget paying ?15 to watch a test match!

 

[h-mAin]

It is not Pakistani...it is UK/DUBAI based...!!

 

[Briggsey]

i once looked to see if the Pakistan-Sri Lanka final of recent was on any of the channels and it was, cant remember which might of been ARY but then when ive tried to watch some others since it says i have to pay......

I have cable, and you can get anything on cable you can get on sky.

I have took some stick on other forums for suggesting this, including one I have 3000+posts.
Put up the licence fee, so the BBC can afford to bid for cricket like we used to have, all home Test Matches, Akk the domestic one day games, it was good stuff.

A rise in the licence fee, would be cheaper than subsciption, or pay per view.
