Watch IPL live stream 2025 from anywhere
You won't be able to watch your regular cricket live streams while traveling abroad. The streaming service will spot that you're in a foreign country and block you.
You can use a VPN (virtual private network) to get around this, though. It's a straightforward piece of software that sets your device to appear as if it's in a different country, allowing you to watch any Indian Premier League 2025 live stream from anywhere in the world.
We rate NordVPN as the best VPN for streaming sport. It offers a 30-day guarantee for all your money back if you're not happy with the service.
Watch IPL live streams 2025 in the US
Cricket fans in the US will be able to watch IPL 2025 live streams via the dedicated cricket service Willow TV. The service costs from $10 a month and is available from a number of cable providers including Dish, Spectrum, Xfinity, Verizon Fios and more.
If you don't have cable, then the best option is to try an OTT provider such as Sling TV. There are options to pay just for Willow (from $10 a month), or add it to your existing Sling plan. You can check out your options and sign up on its website.
To access your usual streaming service from outside the US, you'll need to download a good VPN, as detailed above.

What is the format for IPL 2025?
The teams are split into two groups of five and each play 14 group matches in total. Each side plays against the teams in their group twice - home and away - and also faces the team in the same row in the other group home and away (for example, Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians will play each other twice).
They also play against the four remaining teams in the other group once, with the results forming one overall table. The top four teams in this table qualify for the play-offs.
First and second in the group will face each other in 'Qualifier 1' on 20 May for a place in the final. Third and fourth then play on 21 May in the 'Eliminator' - the winners of that match face the losing side from the first play-off for the second spot in the final.
