Hello friends, today we’ll talk about the Asia Cup 2025, and the biggest question on every cricket fan’s mind is: where can we watch the Asia Cup this time, and is there any option to watch it for free?
Every year, broadcasters keep changing—sometimes Hotstar, sometimes Sony, or other apps. But this time, the scene is a bit different. Let’s break it down step by step.
Official Broadcasting Rights of Asia Cup 2025
This time, Sony Sports Network has secured the broadcasting rights for the entire Asia Cup 2025.
- You can watch matches on Sony Sports Ten 1, Ten 2, Ten 3, and Ten 5 channels.
- If you have a DTH or cable TV connection that includes Sony Sports channels, you can directly enjoy all the matches on TV.
How to Watch Asia Cup 2025 Online (OTT Platforms)
Since many fans prefer watching on mobile or laptops, let’s look at the OTT options.
- The official OTT partner is Sony LIV.
- Subscription plans start at ₹299 per month, with yearly plans also available.
- If you are an Airtel user, you can access Sony LIV through Airtel Xstream Play, free with select recharge plans.
- OTT bundles like OTT Play also include Sony LIV, but they are subscription-based.
So, if you want uninterrupted streaming, Sony LIV is the go-to app.
Will Asia Cup 2025 Stream on Disney+ Hotstar?
A common question fans are asking: “Is the Asia Cup available on Hotstar?”
The answer is No.
- A few years ago, ICC tournaments and Asia Cup matches were streamed on Hotstar.
- But for 2025, Sony Sports Network holds the exclusive rights, so Hotstar won’t stream the tournament.
