Cricket World Cup Final 2019 on TV: Terrestrial coverage guide and schedule as Channel 4 make match free to air in UK

The 2019 Cricket World Cup final takes place this weekend when England take on New Zealand.

An eight wicket victory over Australia on Thursday saw the hosts reach the final for the first time in 27 years.

New Zealand wait for them after their own comprehensive victory over India this week.

Here’s everything you need to know about what happens next…


When and where is the final?

The two winners will meet in the World Cup final at the Home of Cricket, Lord’s, on Sunday, July 14.

It will be the fifth World Cup final to be held the historic ground, but the first since 1999.


How can I watch the final for free?

The 2019 final will be available to watch on free-to-air television with Channel 4 picking up rights for Sunday's showdown.

Their broadcast will begin at 9am on Sunday on Channel 4 - switching to More4 at 1:15pm to make way for the British Grand Prix.

Cricket coverage returns to Channel 4 once the F1 finishes.

The match will also be shown live on Sky Sports' Cricket and Main Event channels, and is available via Now TV with a day pass on offer for £8.99.

Sky Sports subscribers can stream the match online via SkyGo and the SkyGo app.

You can follow all the action with Standard Sport's LIVE blog.
