The World Cup in T20 is reaching a crucial stage as we enter Super 8.
Twenty teams have been whittled down to eight, with the absence of Australia the biggest shock of the tournament so far. In each group, four teams are now fighting to finish in the top two and secure a place in the semi-finals.
Each game is available to listen to for free in the UK on BBC Radio 5 Livewith coverage on the Sports Extra station.

Can I access T20 World Cup coverage on BBC Sounds from overseas or on holiday?
Yes. UK residents wishing to listen to the T20 World Cup traveling abroad can still access the BBC Sounds app via a VPN. We recommend NordVPN, which comes with 70% off, 3 extra months free and an Amazon gift card right now…
How to unblock BBC Sounds with a VPN
If you’re currently outside the UK and blocked from using BBC Sounds, you can still access the app thanks to the wonders of a VPN (Virtual Private Network).
The software allows your devices to look like they are back in your home country, no matter where you are in the world. So ideal for listeners away at work or on holiday who want a taste of home.

BBC Sound Troubleshooting Tips
If you still can’t access BBC Sounds, even using a VPN, there are a few more things you can try.
Make sure your BBC account is linked to a valid UK postcode, such as SE1 7PB.
The BBC Sounds app (iOS / Android) doesn’t appear on the Play Store or App Store outside of the UK, but you may be able to get around that by changing your phone’s region in the settings menu.
The BBC, like most broadcasters and networks, is engaged in a never-ending cat-and-mouse battle with VPN providers.
Although we have ranked the best iPlayer VPNs, something we have compiled through thorough testing, there is no guarantee that the same will be the case tomorrow if one of them works today, in which case you can raise the issue with your VPN provider’s customer support team and ask them to recommend the best server to connect to.
We test and review VPN services for legitimate recreational use. For example: 1. Accessing a Service from another country (subject to the terms and conditions of that Service). 2. Protecting your online security and enhancing your online privacy when you are abroad. We do not support or condone illegal or malicious use of VPN services.
