Free official IPL app
IPL 2021 is the official Android app for the latest news updates, live match commentary and live scores from the Indian Premier League. You can install it for free, provided you have an Android device running version 4.4 or higher. You can also try IPL Scores Live Cricket app.
Coming directly from the IPL, there’s no better source of detailed information and in-depth analysis, post-match interviews and highlight videos about cricket. For number-crunching, you can drill right down to individual player’s performance statistics in various aspects of their game. The app is extremely well designed. It’s also easy to read, navigate and scrolls exceptionally smoothly.
No, the app doesn’t have live video streaming, but you can listen to live commentary. After a match has ended, you can watch a highlights video of the main action and post-match interviews.

How do I use IPL 2021?
You can download the app for free. Once it’s installed, the first thing to do is choose your favourite cricket team from the list that’s presented. This will ensure that you’re kept updated on what interests you most.
You’re then taken to the ‘Latest’ tab, which shows you the most recent IPL news, upcoming matches and assorted facts and figures.
Next to the ‘Latest’ tab at the bottom of the screen is the ‘Videos’ button. This is where you can watch match clips, player interviews and press conferences.
The next section is especially for the statisticians among us. It contains a wide variety of stats, including Most Runs, Most Sixes and much more.
Finally, you have the three dots that open the menu from where you can access match fixtures, results and tables, among other options. This is also where you can update your ‘Favourite Team’ list.
Cricket live streams
As you would expect from India's primary club cricket organisation, the app is exceptionally well designed. Movement is smooth, navigation is easy, and with picture-in-picture mode, the video you’re watching stays on top of any other apps that you have open. What’s more, you can move anywhere on the screen.
The only thing we consider ‘lacking,’ is live match streaming. If that’s what you’re looking for, check out the IPL Scores Live Cricket app. For greater emphasis on stats, Cricket Exchange - Live Score Analysis could be the app for you.
In summary, IPL 2021 is a polished app that you should download if you enjoy cricket.
