Skysports for the Ashes? No Sky at present

Options
Hi! I do not have Sky TV and use Freeview. I would like to get Skysports for the Ashes this year. What is the cheapest way to do this? I am not a current customer of Sky , Virgin, BT or talktalk.

    £10 a day with no contract with nowtv.com from Sky. Each 'day' is 24 hours and includes all Sky Sports channels.

    So if a match lasts 5 days and you watch every day, that's £50 please.

    Sky stupidly call the charge £9.95 but who are they fooling?

    That's not cheap, but signing up to Sky or Virgin etc will mean a minimum term contract. Only the OP can decide which is the more appealing.

    Find a friend who is Skysports subscribed via Sky who will let you use one of their allowances for Sky Go.
    Then watch in pretty good quality on your laptop or Tablet etc.
