How to Watch IPL T20 Cricket Live Streaming Online
All the 59 cricket matches will be streamed online LIVE on iplt20.com – the official website of the Indian Premier League – so anyone could watch the cricket matches online for free. This is not confirmed yet but during the first season all the matches were streamed online for FREE.
This time around, DLF IPL has created an official YouTube video channel at youtube.com/ipl where they would be posting all the match highlight videos, opening ceremony, award functions, etc. but IPL won’t be streaming live matches on YouTube though Google has the technology for that.
Now if you like to watch full IPL matches live on the web, the best option is willow.tv – they have the rights to distribute IPL matches on television, radio, broadband and Internet in all of North America.
There are other websites which provide Live Streaming of IPL matches for FREE, but it is better to go for the official website – IPLT20.com, which will be using the Microsoft Silverlight technology to provide interactive content along with live streaming of cricket matches everyday.
Update: iplt20.com was down for initial 2 days, but is now back up and running. Go to LiveVideo.IPLt20.com and watch the matches online for FREE! If you do not have Microsoft Silverlight, you will be asked to download the plugin, but it is surely worth the pain, enhances the streaming experience by a great deal!
