Am reading text highlights of the cricket and desperate to watch somewhere! Most of the foreigner places I see seem to be quite American (understandably).

with microsoft explorer. live.spvod.com - this is a little glitchy and needs to buffer after 5 minutes. look for the usa flag for language

crictime.com - a little better and you get great indian ads as a bonus!

Or you can listen to it on bbc radio - 5live extra or something. This is an excellent option - listen out for a man called blofeld - if you want an English accent, this is the man you need to learn from!

up in seoul, scrooge pub in itaewon used to air cricket. they also have rugby on regularly. toss in premiere league at hollywood's and wolfhound, and you'll find that british sports televised around itaewon far outnumber north american ones.

Hay.
Listen:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/cricket/tms/default.stm
It should have a "Listen Live" tab on this page around 7pm. There are also podcasts from the days play. It's pretty funny to listen to Jeffrey Boycott.
Watch
http://www.myp2p.eu/index.php?part=sports
(Go to the cricket ball tab and you will find the Ashes if you can't see it on the page given)
http://www.p2p4u.net/
(This was the best site I found, and during the first Test I could link up Test Match special commentary to the live feed, (unless you want to hear Botham bleating on) but at the moment the site is down for repairs which is too bad, but it may pop up again, or at least a version of it.)
Good luck!

Cheers all- I found this place called Sam Ryan's Pub in Itaewon near the hamilton hotel. Think I will wander over there once this dreadful rain has stopped!
