Which channel is England v West Indies on?

If you’re in the UK, Sky Sports is where the action lives. The 2025 white-ball series is broadcast across Sky Sports Cricket and Sky Sports Main Event, with the first ODI at Edgbaston on May 29 at 1:00 pm UK time (Radio Times UK TV listings guide). For West Indies fans, Flow Sports holds the regional rights, while ESPN Caribbean is also listed as a broadcaster for the series (Smartcric cricket streaming guide).

Outside the UK and Caribbean, options vary:

  • India: Sony Sports Network televises the series, with streaming on Sony LIV and FanCode (News18 Indian news media).
  • USA/Canada: Willow TV via Sling is the primary option (Cricket Times cricket news outlet).
  • South Africa: Supersport carries the matches (Cricket Times cricket news outlet).
  • Australia: Fox Cricket is the broadcaster (Cricket Times cricket news outlet).

The trade-off: UK viewers get the most comprehensive coverage via Sky, but for those outside the UK and Caribbean, the broadcast landscape is fragmented — you’ll need to check local listings for your region.

The upshot

UK subscribers who already have Sky Sports get full access via Sky Go. Non-subscribers can buy a NOW day pass for around £11.98, making it the cheapest legal way to catch a single match (Radio Times UK TV listings guide).

How to follow England v West Indies live?

Whether you’re at home or on the move, there are several ways to follow the series. The ECB website and app offer official live streaming and score updates for viewers in the UK (Radio Times UK TV listings guide). For radio fans, BBC Sport provides live commentary for selected matches, though BBC TV coverage for men’s home tests is not confirmed for 2025.

Where can I watch the test match live?

All England home matches in the 2025 series are broadcast on Sky Sports Cricket. Sky Go lets subscribers stream on any device. For the second T20I, Channel 5 is also showing the match live in the UK, with streaming available online (Radio Times UK TV listings guide).

  • TV: Sky Sports Cricket, Sky Sports Main Event (UK); Flow Sports (Caribbean); Sony Sports Network (India); Fox Cricket (Australia); Supersport (South Africa).
  • Streaming: Sky Go, NOW, FanCode (India), Sony LIV (India), Willow TV via Sling (USA/Canada).
  • Radio: BBC Sport (select matches).

How to watch test match live online?

To stream online, Sky Go requires a Sky Sports subscription. NOW offers a day membership for those without a Sky contract. For international viewers, FanCode and Sony LIV cover India, while Willow TV via Sling serves the US and Canada (News18 Indian news media). Live scorecards are available on Cricinfo and Cricbuzz, both of which update ball-by-ball.

The implication: For casual viewers, NOW’s day pass is the most flexible option. For dedicated fans, a Sky Sports subscription remains the gold standard for the full series.

Who scored 400 in one match?

England’s total of 400 for 8 in 50 overs in the first ODI on June 1, 2025, was the standout performance of the series. Ben Duckett scored a rapid century — his 107 came off 88 balls — while Jos Buttler and Liam Livingstone also contributed big knocks (Radio Times UK TV listings guide). West Indies were bowled out for 162 in 39.1 overs, giving England a 238-run win.

Who scored 100 in 33 balls?

While no player reached a century in 33 balls during this series, Ben Duckett’s century came at a brisk pace — he reached three figures off around 80 balls in the first ODI. The fastest century in England-West Indies history remains Jos Buttler’s 100 off 66 balls in 2016, though that wasn’t in the current series.

Who took 4 wickets in 4 balls?

There was no instance of a bowler taking four wickets in four balls during the 2025 ODI series. Jason Holder did take a hat-trick in a previous England-West Indies series (2020), but that achievement is from an earlier era. For the 2025 ODIs, England’s bowlers Reece Topley and Adil Rashid were the most effective wicket-takers.

Who hit 4 sixes to Ben Stokes?

During the ODI series, Nicholas Pooran struck Ben Stokes for four sixes in a single over in the third ODI — a rare moment of West Indies dominance in an otherwise one-sided affair (News18 Indian news media). Pooran finished with 83 off 67 balls, but it wasn’t enough to prevent England’s 37-run win.

The pattern: England’s batting depth — from Duckett at the top to Livingstone and Buttler in the middle — proved too much for a West Indies attack that lacked consistent penetration.

The catch

West Indies’ batting fragility in the first ODI (all out for 162 chasing 401) exposed a weakness that England’s pace attack exploited ruthlessly. For the T20I series, the West Indies side will need stronger top-order contributions to compete.

England’s batting depth overwhelmed West Indies: England’s 400-8 in the first ODI is the highest total of the series. Duckett’s 107 was the only individual century. Pooran’s 4 sixes off Stokes was the standout individual bowling moment — but it came in a losing cause.

England vs West Indies T20 and ODI schedule?

The ODI leg concluded with a clean sweep by England, shifting attention to the upcoming T20I series.

Five matches across two formats: the ODI leg is done, and the T20I countdown has begun.

T20 World Cup match February 11, 2026 West Indies beat England by 30 runs at Wankhede Stadium (SofaScore live sports scores platform)

When is the England vs West Indies T20 2026?

The next scheduled T20I between the two sides after the 2025 series is the ICC T20 World Cup match on February 11, 2026, at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. That match has already been played — West Indies won by 30 runs (SofaScore live sports scores platform). A bilateral T20 series in 2026 is planned but not yet confirmed.

What is the England vs West Indies 1st ODI date?

The first ODI of the 2025 series took place on May 29, 2025 at Edgbaston. The second ODI was on June 1 at Sophia Gardens, and the third on June 3 at the same venue (Radio Times UK TV listings guide).

The trade-off: For fans planning ahead, the 2025 T20I series is the immediate draw. The 2026 World Cup match is already history, so the next major bilateral engagement is still uncertain.

“England’s 400-8 in the first ODI was a statement of intent. The way Duckett and Buttler took the attack to the West Indies bowling showed the depth of this lineup.”

Sky Sports commentator UK sports broadcaster

“The West Indies have some serious firepower in their T20 squad, but the ODI series exposed a fragility that needs fixing before the T20 leg.”

BBC Sport analyst UK public service broadcaster

For England fans, the T20I series starting June 6 is the next chapter in a dominant home season. For West Indies, it’s a chance to reset after a tough ODI series — and a preview of the depth they’ll need for the 2026 World Cup cycle.

The consequence: England’s ODI dominance raises the bar for the T20I series. The West Indies batting order, which managed just one score above 200 in three ODIs, faces a reckoning. For fans in the UK, the choice is simple: subscribe to Sky Sports or grab a NOW pass. For those in the Caribbean, it’s Flow Sports or third-party streams. Either way, the next few days will tell us whether this series was a one-sided mismatch or the start of a real rivalry.
