How to Watch IPL Live Online From Anywhere With a VPN
To watch IPL live cricket online with a VPN in 2025, follow these steps:
- Choose a reliable VPN service: Pick a VPN service with servers in countries where IPL broadcasts are available. Some popular VPN options are ExpressVPN, NordVPN, Proton VPN and Surfshark.
- Register, download, and install: Choose a subscription plan and sign up on the VPN provider’s website. Then, download and install the VPN software on your device (computer, smartphone, or tablet).
- Connect to a server: Launch the VPN app, sign in, and connect to a server in a country with IPL broadcasting rights. For example, to watch IPL on Hotstar, connect to a server in the USA. Or, if you’re in the U.S. and prefer not to subscribe to ESPN Plus or Willow TV, you can use a VPN to access an Indian server and watch free cricket streaming on JioCinema.
- Sign up on the streaming platform: Visit the website or app of the streaming service holding IPL broadcasting rights in the connected country. For instance, Hotstar is popular in the USA. Create an account and, if needed, subscribe to a plan that includes live sports.
- Stream the IPL live: Log in to your streaming platform account, find the IPL live cricket match you want to watch and start streaming. VPN technology broadens your choices, so you’re not limited to local streaming services. The VPN connection will make it seem like you’re in the broadcast country, enabling you to watch without restrictions.
