Can Ireland topple the world champions? This guide explains how you can watch England v Ireland live streams... wherever you are
England are hosting Ireland for a three-match ODI series.
With the World Cup only a few weeks away, England have named something of an experimental squad as their traveling party take a break before heading to India. Zak Crawley will captain a squad featuring no fewer than four uncapped players.
Ireland are not involved in the World Cup after falling short in the final qualifying tournament in Zimbabwe in June and July. This is their chance to finish the summer on a high.
Wherever you happen to be in the world over the coming days, we'll explain your England v Ireland live stream options, with TV channel information in different cricket-loving countries around the world. And even how to watch using a VPN if you're trying to stream your own country's coverage while abroad.
The first and third ODIs are day-night matches, starting at 12.30pm BST, with daily coverage starting on Sky Sports at midday. The second match begins at 11am, with coverage beginning at 10.30am.
For cricket fans in the US, play commences at 7.30am ET / 4.30am PT each day (6am ET / 3am PT for the second ODI) streamed as cheaply as $7 thanks to a special offer from Sling TV.
