Willow Sports is Available on major platforms for Free

Willow, offering more live, streaming and on-demand cricket than any other sports service, today announced the launch of Willow Sports, North America’s first Free Ad-Supported Streaming TV (FAST) channel dedicated to cricket.  Willow Sports offers fans free access to live marquee matches, classic games and much more.

Willow Sports is available on major streaming platforms, including DistroTV, FuboTV, Karosteam, Plex, Sling, Free Live Sports, and Yupp TV where viewers can catch ICC Women’s T20 World Cup matches.

“Over the past year, cricket’s popularity has skyrocketed in North America, largely fueled by USA’s stunning victory over Pakistan in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup and the second season of Major League Cricket,” said Todd Myers, COO of Willow. “With this growing enthusiasm, Willow Sports will bring cricket further into the spotlight, offering free access to some of the most exciting matches and tournaments. American cricket fans have never had greater access to the second most popular sport in the world.”

Willow Sports launches with a diverse lineup featuring select live matches from major competitions such as the IPL and ICC events, including the upcoming ICC Women’s T20 World Cup. With an unmatched slate of live women’s matches, Willow Sports is the true home of women’s cricket in America. Viewers have access to unforgettable performances from top athletes, along with full-length replays and highlights of iconic moments like Virat Kohli’s record-breaking century and the USA’s remarkable victory over Pakistan.

This announcement comes on the heels of a wave of success for Willow, having recently partnered with several streaming services and regional sports networks, including Fubo, YES Network, ROOT Sports, NBC Sports Bay Area, Monumental Sports and Bally Sports.

Willow is the home of cricket in North America and the only platform that reaches more than 5 million South Asians in the U.S. and Canada. The service connects advertisers and brands with an affluent and well-educated audience of passionate fans of cricket, the most popular sport of the fastest-growing demographic in the U.S., the Asian Indian community.
