Indian Premier League 2023: Season preview
Two months of world class T20 cricket is on the menu once more, as the Indian Premier League returns for its 16th season.
Ten star-packed teams will be battling out across 12 venues and 74 matches, with the Gujarat Titans the defending champs following their maiden victory last year.
There's a return to the familiar home-away format, with franchises back at their home venues for the first time in four years, as well as number of significant rule changes, including the announcement of starting XIs following the toss and the controversial Impact Player rule which now allows tactical substitutions to be made in-game.
This year's most valuable player is England star Sam Curran who was snapped up by Punjab Kings for a record breaking 16.25 crore (£1.85 million), while Australian all-rounder Cameron Green and England Test skipper Ben Stokes also went for big bucks during the pre-season auctions.
And it's only going to get more chaotic from here! It's world class cricket played at 150kph, and you can follow our Indian Premier League cricket guide for all you need to know to watch an IPL live stream for free – from anywhere in the world.

How to watch IPL cricket from outside your country
Below we've got you covered with your official broadcasting options for major cricket loving countries (and the US!), but if you're outside your country of residence - whether that's India, the UK or anywhere else - and try to start streaming the cricket via your local broadcaster, you'll soon discover that you can't, as it's location restricted. But there is a way to tune in regardless.
By downloading and installing a VPN, you can effectively trick your computer into thinking that it's back at home. That way you can enjoy your home coverage without having to find an illegal stream - assuming you comply with the broadcaster's fine print, of course - specifically its terms and conditions.

Can I watch an IPL live stream in Pakistan?
Relations between Pakistan and India continue to be fractious to say the least, and one of the results is that the IPL is once again not being broadcast in Pakistan. Very disappointing news for the cricket-mad nation.
Your best bet, therefore, may be to use one of the best streaming VPNs to tap into coverage from a different country, as described above.
The software is generally ideal for this as it allows you to change your IP address and appear to be in a completely different location - and all through a safe, encrypted connection. But do bear in mind that most paid streaming services do require a credit card based in the same country as the service.
