How to watch by region (practical options)
India

Live stream: Disney+ Hotstar (app & website). Mobile viewing options were offered for free at times during the tournament window — check the app for current device/region limits.
Quick tip: if you’re on a smart TV, install the Disney+ Hotstar app and log in; for free/DD Sports, tune the set-top box to DD Sports.
Pakistan
TV: PTV network / PTV Sports and associated ICC linear partners.
Live stream: Myco and Tamasha apps/websites in the region.
United States & Canada

Local fans in the host city could also follow stadium information for screenings or fan events.

Australia

Rest of the world (many territories)

Practical “how-to” steps (device-agnostic)
- Decide where you want to watch: TV, laptop/desktop, mobile, or cinema screening.
- If TV: check your cable/satellite guide for Star Sports (India), Sky (UK), Willow (US/Canada), or local rights holder.
- If streaming on mobile/tablet: download the relevant app (Disney+ Hotstar, Willow, ICC.tv, Myco, Tamasha, Prime Video, Sky Go, etc.), sign in or register before match day.
- For desktop: use the official broadcaster website (Hotstar.com, Willow.tv, ICC.tv, PrimeVideo.com, etc.).
- If you plan to watch internationally, confirm geo-restrictions and whether you need a paid subscription.
- Arrive 10–15 minutes early on the app/channel of your choice to avoid buffering and to catch the toss.
A couple of viewing notes from me
- Toss timing matters: it’s usually 30 minutes before the scheduled start. If you’re joining late, you might miss the toss and first few overs.
- Free-to-air windows: some broadcasters provided free mobile streaming or free-to-air TV options in specific territories — worth checking if you want a no-cost route.
- Local time vs home time: because this game was in the US, the start time lands in the morning for local fans and the evening for viewers in India — set a reminder.
If you want, I can tailor this to your city/country and list the exact channel/app steps for your device (Smart TV model, Android/iPhone, or desktop). Tell me where you are and what device you’ll use.
