Anybody know where I can listen to live coverage of the Ashes 2nd test online? Tried to tune in to BBC R4 LW last night, but they weren't broadcasting the match
:confused:

Can often be rather awkward over the net, at least when rights have been sold to a rival station. Stuff like boxing is usually available over terrestrial radio but not the net. Should be available on your wireless but the best way over the net is Cricinfo, unless theres a convict station out there boacasting on the net.

Try http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/tv_and_radio/test_match_special/2144940.stm


for the BBC's Test Match Special Online broadcast. You'll need realplayer to listen to it. And probably a stiff upper lip if you're English.
