For those who have been sleeping through the early morning matches: The 2023 Cricket World Cup is currently underway with 48 games playing out across six weeks in India. With defending champions England having just been defeated by Afghanistan in the 2023 tournament’s biggest upset so far, it appears this year’s host country is also the team to beat. India’s last match against its rival, Pakistan, just set the global on-demand streaming record at 35 million concurrent viewers on Disney+ Hotstar — an audience five times that of the most recent Super Bowl (at its peak). Want to see what all the buzz is about? Here’s how you can tune into the 2023 Cricket World Cup, including how to stream games totally free, the full game schedule (with bright and early start times) and more.
