Does anyone know if this game is going to be screened on tv/streamed online?

Broad looking in good order.

This coverage is shambolic. A ropey stream that constantly crashes, with no ability to watch in full screen or a sensible resolution/aspect ratio. OR ANY SOUND/COMMENTARY!?

Madness.

Currently operating on a botch job, bbc commentary on the iplayer combined with the stream on my laptop feeding through to my tv via hdmi. I've zoomed in on the browser to cover probably 70% of my tv screen. The two are not quite in sync but it will do.

21st century eh?

Baffling,

Well, the previous game was Australia 'A' so in theory it was the toughest practice match and Therefore televised.
This is a scratch game. Television companies don't have money to burn, so have chosen the bigger draw on paper. Thoroughly logical.

The Sydney out field looked a right state, I thought it was a club ground when I first saw the footage.

Fair e snuff.

I suppose it's only recently they've started to show warm ups. There were just reports before, so maybe in a few years time, more will be shown. Who knows.

I think them showing the A game was as much as anything about the fact that the Australian broadcasters were covering it, so there was a high quality cheap feed.

Fair enough Jake, but I'm just glad to be able to see it in the first place. It's very unusual to be able to watch warm up games, so I'm taking this as a bonus, although I'm a little perplexed at why you can't full screen the stream.

I guess beggars can't be choosers ;-)

Ch 9 covered the first game because it was Aus A playing, this game was supposed to be NSW vs England until about 2 weeks ago when it was changed to an invitational XI. How many of the Aus vs a county games are covered when Aus tours England?

Was very surprised the Aus A game was covered.

Cricket.com.au provides these LQ streams for all shield games, its fantastic to be able to see shield games as until last year it was never possible.
