Good news. According to the KNCB-website, the ICC is going to livestream several matches from the World Cricket League Division 1 on its website.
All the six games played on the VRA-ground – including the final on July 10 – will be broadcasted live on internet. Those six matches account for almost a third of the entire tournament and each team plays at least once at VRA:
- July 1 - The Netherlands vs Scotland
- July 3 – Canada vs Scotland
- July 5 – Kenya vs Afghanistan
- July 9: – The Netherlands vs Ireland
- July 10 – Final
For the full list of fixtures, visit the ICC website.
Really a great initiative by the ICC and, as far as I know, the first time an ICC event for associate members will be livestreamed.

Thanks for this news. It is fantastic news. I wonder if they are doing it because of the increased interest in the tournamnet Afghanistan have brought with it. With all their fans and what not. I do know that an Afghanistan cricket website was planning to stream all of Afghanistan matches on their website. Now, if the ICC lets them, they will just do their matches which are not at the VRA.
Good point Zyon, Afghanistan is ‘hot’ at the moment and their involvement in the tournament could very well be one of the main reasons the ICC is doing this.
