04 Is the A vs E_ test match live on the net?

It is your duty to keep Andy's list as
complete/accurate as possible.

These sites will, in general broadcast home matches
(for which they have the rights). But they try to
acquire the rights for away matches too.

Cricinfo occassionally get the internet broadcast rights
for broadcasters withou a net presence. eg Sri Lanka, etc.

If Wordtel is doing the TV production, chances are
good they will broadcast on the net as well.

Over to Andy:
