Live Cricket Test Matches and Live International cricket games

Cricket is the second most popular sport in the world today after football. However people in all parts of the world are not always able to watch cricket live on their television due to various reasons. Sometimes, the rights for the games are not sold to all countries. In other cases, the die hard cricket fan has to subscribe to several channels in order to be able to watch all his favourite teams in action. This is where WatchLiveCricket.com comes in. With only a computer and a fast internet connection, you can watch live cricket streaming from any place in the world. All major cricket games can be seen online from your control panel at WatchLiveCricket.com, and we already have lots of satisfied fans in our network.

The Gentleman's game, as cricket is often referred to, is played in three formats - Five day Tests, 50 over One Day Internationals and 20 over Twenty20's. All three formats have produced some riveting contests over the years and games featuring the likes of India, England, Pakistan, Australia and South Africa are keenly followed across the world.
Test Cricket has come a long way since 1877, when the first officially recognised match was played between England and Australia at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. The full members of the International Cricket Council play tests against each other in a home and away format. The number of tests in a tour can vary from one to five. Both home and away tours are not necessarily played in the same calendar year.

The five day version of the game tests a player's technical abilities, stamina, patience and other qualities to the limit and is considered by many to be the purest version of cricket. All the greats of the modern game have all been fabulous test match players which is why test cricket is keenly followed live by many fans. A single day of test cricket is played in three sessions from the morning till the end of the evening in natural sunlight. The fortunes of the game can often change suddenly in a single session due to spells of inspired bowling or first class batting. The many intricate battles being fought on the pitch simultaneously make test cricket a delight to watch.

The most popular test cricket battle is fought between England and Australia, who compete for the Ashes. Other keen contests include the Border-Gavaskar Trophy (India vs Australia), Sir Basil D'Oliveira Trophy (England vs South Africa), the Trans Tasman Trophy (Australia vs New Zealand) and the Frank Worrell Trophy (Australia vs West Indies). You can follow all these games live on your computer by signing up to see test cricket online streaming at WatchLivecricket.com.

After test match cricket, we have One Day International Cricket. This format originally required each team to play 60 overs of cricket, a figure that was later reduced to fifty. Unlike test cricket, players in One Day Internationals wear coloured clothing and also play under lights.
