We've put all the major VPNs through their paces and we rate ExpressVPN as our pick of what's out there, thanks to its ease of use and strong security features. It's also compatible with just about any streaming device out there, including Amazon Fire TV Stick, Apple TV, Xbox and PlayStation, as well as Android and Apple mobiles. So to get that home broadcast and stay safer online, ExpressVPN is our recommended option.

This is the #1 rated best VPN in the world right now, with those previously mentioned levels of security, speed and compatibility putting it to the top of the list. You can try it out for a month for free or sign up for an annual plan and get 3 months absolutely FREE (opens in new tab). 

Once you've chosen and installed your VPN of choice, simply open the service's corresponding app, hit 'choose location', select the appropriate country and you'll be able to watch the broadcast as if you were back at home.

Sky Sports once again has exclusive live broadcast rights to the cricket in the UK, including this Test series. If you subscribe to Sky Sports (opens in new tab), you'll be able to watch each match live on your TV. All matches will also be available in Ultra HD for Sky Q subscribers. You can also live stream all of the action on your phone or tablet using the Sky Go app.

A Now TV Sky Sports Pass (opens in new tab) gets you access to all 11 Sky Sports channels and costs £9.99 a day or £33.99 a month - the Monthly Pass being the only way to go (opens in new tab) for cricket fans, especially with August's England vs Pakistan Test series looming. In addition, you'll get the final round of Premier League matches aired by Sky, PGA Tour golf, F1 action, NBA basketball, and so much more.

if you're not in the UK but want to catch up with any of the Sky coverage, then you'll need a VPN (opens in new tab) to relocate your IP to the UK and get around the region restrictions. Just follow those instructions above.

Coverage begins each day of the Test at 10.30am BST on Sky Sports Cricket, with play scheduled to start at 11am.

For those Down Under, Fox Sports is generally the place to watch cricket. Bizarrely, as it's a pay TV channel, this is actually great news for cord-cutters, as it means that streaming service Kayo Sports will be offering end-to-end England vs West Indies coverage without the need to take out a contract.

Kayo is also significantly cheaper, with a Kayo Sports Basic Package (opens in new tab) costing $25 per month and allowing users to stream across two devices simultaneously. Alternatively, the service also offers a Kayo Sports Premium Package (opens in new tab), which provides three concurrent streams for $35 per month. We probably don't need to tell you, but this means you can get it for peanuts by splitting a subscription with friends or family - and if you haven't used it before, there's even a FREE TRIAL to take advantage of.

For those wanting to watch the Fox or Kayo Sports subscription coverage overseas, you'll need to go down the VPN route (opens in new tab) as above.

Coverage of the 3rd Test starts at 8pm AEST every day.

For red ball fans in America, Willow TV (opens in new tab) is the official US broadcaster of the series. The service costs $9.99 a month and is also available on streaming services such as Sling (opens in new tab) and Fubo (opens in new tab).

To watch Willow TV when you're out of America and geo-blocked, our VPN workaround (opens in new tab) as outlined above will ensure you don't miss any of the action.

The first ball will be bowled at at 6am ET/3am PT every day, but as it's Test cricket, you can tune it to plenty of action at more sociable hours - play should run until around 2-3pm ET most days. 

Sky (opens in new tab) generally enjoys the rights to live cricket coverage in Australia - though as there's no local interest, it doesn't seem that the country's version of Sky Sports is airing this week's England vs West Indies 3nd Test.

When it does show the action, there's the Sky Go app available for on-the-go viewing - and anyone currently overseas can always utilise the VPN route (opens in new tab) outlined earlier.

While the postponed of the T20 World Cup this autumn means the Black Caps have no scheduled matches on the horizon, a number of players are expected to participate in the IPL.
