Chris, a UK-born media connoisseur, is an expert in watching international TV. Known as "The Global Screen Wanderer", he has travelled extensively across the globe with long stints away from home. With over 10 years of experience he has become the go-to guru for streaming content from home and abroad.
Pakistan faces New Zealand this month with a whole host of cricket matches taking place in the United Arab Emirates.
If you’re a cricket fan or from New Zealand or Pakistan then you’ll definitely want to watch these games.
Unfortunately, finding somewhere reliable to watch them can be really difficult. If you don’t have a cable subscription or live in a country where the matches aren’t shown then you could be left with no way to watch.
The great news is you can watch all the matches on streams from overseas and it’s really simple to do using a ‘VPN‘ app.
Below I’ll show you where to get the best VPN app for the job and how to use it to watch Pakistan vs New Zealand across their entire tour in the UAE.
Where can you get a VPN app to watch
The first thing you’ll need to do is get a VPN app that will allow you to watch the matches on an overseas website.
The matches are shown live and for free on Indian TV and have full English commentary too. A VPN app will let you access and watch these.
You’ll need a VPN app to watch them otherwise you’ll be blocked. A VPN works by letting you change your online location so you appear somewhere else.
You can get VPN apps from a whole bunch of different companies but you’ll need one that offers what’s known as an ‘Indian server’. This will let you watch the cricket live on Indian TV in ANY country.
My recommendation is to use ExpressVPN. I’ve tried and tested them and they work well but you could check out some other providers such as IPVanish and NordVPN if you’ve got time.
Watching the matches is completely free but you will need to pay a couple of dollars for the VPN service.

What to do once connected
Once you’re connected to the VPN app that’s all there is to it.
Just head over to SonyLiv which is showing all the games. Don’t forget if you visit the SonyLiv website without using a VPN app then you’ll find the website blocked.
