Women's T20 World Cup 2026: Free live cricket stream of all England, Scotland, Ireland games and final on Sky Sports App

Sky Sports will make all 12 group matches involving England, Scotland and Ireland, as well as the semi-finals and final of the 2026 ICC Women's T20 World Cup available for FREE via the Sky Sports App.

Everyone will be able to stream all of the three home nations' group games without subscription via the app, while their first matches in the tournament - plus the final - will also be shown free-to-air on Sky Mix.

Additionally, the tournament opener between England and Sri Lanka at Edgbaston on June 12 will be broadcast on Sky One and via Sky Sports' YouTube channel as well as Sky Sports' linear channels.

These moves allow for the biggest audiences possible to get behind the tournament, which concludes with the final at Lord's on Sunday July 5.

New Zealand are defending champions, with England looking to win the tournament for the first time since 2009 when they also hosted the inaugural edition.

As the exclusive home of the tournament, Sky Sports and NOW will show every match live, from the first ball at Edgbaston through to the final at Lord's with unmissable coverage and analysis being delivered by Nasser Hussain, Natasha Farrant and Hannah Wilkes.

The Women's T20 World Cup kicks off a standout summer of women's cricket on Sky Sports, including a historic first women's Test match at Lord's between England and India starting on July 10, alongside The Hundred's return later in the month.

Jonathan Licht, Sky's chief sports officer UK & Ireland, said: "We believe this summer can be a defining moment for women's cricket.

"By making many of the ICC Women's T20 World Cup matches available to everyone, we can reach new audiences, build fandom and inspire the next generation.

"At Sky Sports, we're not just broadcasting women's sport, we're a partner in its growth, working with the ICC and ECB to make these moments as impactful as possible."

Sanjog Gupta, CEO of the International Cricket Council, said: "The ICC Women's T20 World Cup is positioned as a pinnacle event in global sport and a significant fan recruitment opportunity for women's cricket.

"This is a significant step by Sky Sports, our partner in the UK, and aligns with our strategy to widen access for fans across screens and stadia.

"The UK has a proud cricketing heritage, and moments like this, where the sport is accessible to everyone, on any screen, are how we garner attention and deepen affiliation, grow the next generation of fans, and ensure women's cricket takes its rightful place in national and global sporting conversations."

Beth Barrett-Wild, tournament director, said: "The ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2026 is set to bring world-class players, incredible performances, and unmissable moments to brilliant venues across England and Wales, and we couldn't be happier that even more people will be able to experience the spectacle live via this extensive Sky Sports coverage plan.

"With many of the biggest matches, including the opener at Edgbaston on 12 June and the Final at Lord's on 5 July, available to everybody, the stage is set for an incredible World Cup, where battles will be fought, names will be made and new fans will fall in love with women's cricket forever."
