Sky have announced what games will be shown during the Cricket World Cup

Looking at the schedule, Ireland V Zimbabwe is on Sky Sports 1 at 1pm on Thursday 15th, Ireland's game on St. Patrick Day v Pakistan is on Sky Sports 2 via the red button, as is the game against the West Indies on Friday 23rd.

I hope we'll be able to record those two games via the red button.

The BBC will have highlights, they've yet to announce timings.

BBC World Cup coverage

NOTE: for some reason, it only lists 5 Live Sports Extra, but they all the matches on that channel are on Radio 4 LW. I've heard it in the ads on Radio 5 Live, it doesn't plug R4LW at all.

BBC Television will have full and comprehensive highlights from the 2007 Cricket World Cup.

only crap thing is, i only have ntl digital now, so no interactive :mad:

I should also say for the BBC 1 listings, they are the network listings, and not necessarily the BBC 1 Northern Ireland listings. BBC 1 NI is prone to have the odd local programme on at that hour....

Ruggie mate, that's a bit harsh, isn't it?

I'm only there for a week, so will see the Zim and Pakistan games (hopefully, not got tickets yet!).

If I can I'll try to post a couple of times here to give a eyewitness report or two.

RuggieBear

my jealousy knows no rational limit!!!!:p

I demand pictures of the matches!
