I suspect the cricket fans will already know this, but ITV4 (freeview channel 24) are showing whole games live in the Indian Premier League. They are only 20 overs, so it's all quite exciting - 170 runs is a reasonable total, and one of the batsmen in today's matches got 49 in 18 balls. (Tendulkar made a leisurely 55 in 43 balls). Teams are allowed a certain number of overseas players - I think it's 3 or 4, so for example Shane Warne was playing today.
Probably not for the 5 day purists, but good fun if you like the action a bit more condensed. See:
