Unfortunately, a specific URL only exists whilst the game being reported is actually being played. So testing can only happen when a game is being reported. (The BBC pipe their radio commentary and an information display feed to a game specific URL.) Fortunately, the BBC are always reporting on some game, as long as one is being played somewhere, so it is a question of going to the main cricket page and then finding the currently in use URL.

I haven't tried them with the GStreamer version to see if they exhibit the same problems, they appear to work fine under the Xine version, but the BBC do have various video/audio articles on the sport main page (http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport). Again specific URLs change on a daily basis but there is always something there.

The BBC help page is currently: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/video_and_audio/help_guide/4304501.stm, but I guess this might change as well :-)
