How to watch T20 World Cup from anywhere

The T20 World Cup is available to view and stream through different broadcasters and services around the world. In several countries (including some competing regions like the Netherlands and Italy), streams are available for free through the ICC.TV streaming platform. Users just need to create an account, and then they're all set to start streaming.

If you're away from the location where your streaming service works and you're still hoping to catch a match, you can access your go-to viewing options (including the free ones) from anywhere with the help of a VPN. Short for virtual private networks, VPNs are handy cybersecurity tools that allow people to temporarily alter the virtual locations on their electronic devices. They're especially popular among those looking to access their usual websites and apps while traveling abroad or hoping to upgrade their online privacy and security.

NordVPN is one of the best options on the market. It's user-friendly and features a massive selection of global servers. For a limited time, those who sign up for a two-year contract on a Plus or higher plan will get a free Amazon gift card thrown in. You can learn more about the service in our NordVPN review.

Note: The use of VPNs is illegal in certain countries and using VPNs to access region-locked streaming content might constitute a breach of the terms of use for certain services. Business Insider does not endorse or condone the illegal use of VPNs.
