For “which channel is the cricket on,” the exact answer depends on which match , your country , and whether you’re asking about TV or streaming.

Quick answer

For major international games and ICC events in early 2026, coverage is typically on:

  • India: Star Sports TV channels, with streaming on Disney+ Hotstar.
  • Many other regions: Official ICC streaming service (often branded as ICC.tv) and local sports networks.

Because broadcast rights are regional and match‑specific, the only way to avoid a wrong answer is to know your country and the exact fixture.

How to find the right channel fast

  • Check a live scores site or fixture list for today’s date, note the exact match (e.g., “India U19 vs USA U19, U19 World Cup 2026”).
  • Search “[your country] TV channel for <team 1> vs <team 2> ” – broadcasters for events like the U19 World Cup are usually listed clearly.
  • Look at the official tournament or ICC match‑listing page, which often links to the official broadcaster or streaming platform per region.

If you’re asking about the U19 World Cup 2026

  • In India, the ICC Men’s U19 World Cup 2026 matches (such as India U19 vs USA U19 on January 15) are scheduled on Star Sports Network’s TV channels, with streaming via Disney+ Hotstar.
  • In other countries, rights may be with different sports networks or only via ICC’s own streaming service, so local listings are essential.

If you share:

  • Your country/region
  • The teams playing
  • Whether you want TV or streaming

a much more precise channel name can be given instead of a generic guess.
