ESPN+ launched almost two years ago, and while the sports broadcaster was slower than others to bring its content into the world of streaming (mostly due to stricter regional broadcasting restrictions, which have historically made online streaming iffy for sports fans), this premium service has quickly grown into a must-have for cord-cutters and anyone else who can’t get enough of Cricket, UFC, Top Rank Boxing, Major League Soccer, and more.

ESPN+ is also the best way for you to watch cricket any time, anywhere from the comfort of your PC web browser or mobile device via the ESPN app. Now’s a good time to join up, too, with the second test of India’s tour of New Zealand just starting. New Zealand currently leads India 1-0, having most recently claimed the victory in the contentious first test.

India took the first two matches following the start of the tour on January 24, but New Zealand managed to tie the next two. India then won the fifth match, but New Zealand roared back to secure victories in the next three; the final two matches of the first part of the tour resulted in another draw followed by a final win from New Zealand by 10 wickets in the first test.

The second test of India’s tour of New Zealand began on February 28, and runs until Monday, March 3, making now an ideal time to sign up for ESPN+ if you haven’t done so already. Along with cricket, you enjoy a myriad of other live sporting events, pre-and post-game analysis, exclusive, shows, and much more, all for only $5 per month or a slightly cheaper $50 per year. Alternatively, if you’re new to the world of cord-cutting and you’re looking for a larger streaming package, then you can score this bundle and get ESPN+ along with Hulu and Disney+ for just $13 per month, saving you 25%.

The feature is available from Spotify’s Home and Now Playing screens and works much like a personal audio assistant. It can choose what plays, answer questions about the current track or album, recommend something new, and look through your listening history to provide more personalized responses.

Christopher Nolan’s personal take on smartphones is surprisingly practical
Christopher Nolan says not owning a smartphone helps him think better
Christopher Nolan sits in front of an IMAX camera.

Christopher Nolan has spent his career embracing cutting-edge filmmaking technology while resisting one of the most common gadgets on the planet: the smartphone. The Oscar-winning director behind Oppenheimer, Inception, and the upcoming The Odyssey says his decision isn't about rejecting technology altogether. It's about protecting something he believes has become increasingly rare - time to think.

In an interview with The Telegraph ahead of the premiere of The Odyssey, Nolan explained that he still doesn't own a smartphone, despite living in a world where QR codes, digital tickets, and messaging apps have become everyday necessities. His reasoning, however, is far more practical than philosophical.
