If you can't watch the game, listening on radio is the next best thing. I've bookmarked a bunch of broadcasters' official and legal streaming sites that I always use, and I figure some of you may also be interested. If that's the case, can this thread be stickied, please?
For a game that's played in:
Australia: ABC Radio -- govt, available worldwide
Bangladesh:
England: Radio 5 Live Extra -- govt, sometimes available worldwide
New Zealand: Radio Sport NZ -- non-govt, but usually available worldwide
Pakistan:
South Africa: Radio 2000 -- govt, available worldwide
Sri Lanka:
West Indies:
Zimbabwe:
You can stream any of the above radio stations through their website, or you can download a free smartphone app called TuneIn Radio from the App Store.
As you can see, there are several gaps, particularly in the sub-continent. I'm pretty sure the West Indies broadcasters will vary from region to region, depending on where a game is being played, but I could use the input from Pablo (is he still here?) or anyone else from the Caribbean. English-language radio is preferred, but if you know any official radio broadcaster, you can post them too.
*If you don't know if a broadcaster is official, ask yourself this: when you're listening, can you hear the sounds through the stump microphone? If you can, it's official.
