Free cricket channel on Shaw Cable.
 
Either I was drunk and ordered it by mistake last night or there's a free preview of CBN which shows live cricket on Shaw cable in BC. Channel 197. If its lots of scoring you want, cricket is the game. :thumbup:

I'm sure I've mentioned this before, but I prefer my cricket via BBC4's TMS.

She could have taken the afternoon off and popped down to the ground. It looks lovely and sunny, everyone looks like they're having a good bevy time and if NZ get their finger out they could go two up in the ODI series.

They've cut off CBN but now you get CricketPlus (192 Shaw BC) for a free trial, so you can watch most of the IPL games.
