Making your Cricket Australia live stream bigger.

If you signed up for Cricket Australia's digital streaming service this summer you'd be pretty disappointed with the very tiny size of the video stream. For those of us that can't get terrestrial TV for whatever reason and use digital services and paid good money for them this is a terrible decision.

Thankfully, with a bit of CSS-fu it's possible to get an almost full-screen video feed and get rid of all those rubbish ads to boot.

This is version one - mostly because I only did enough to be satisfied watching the first ODI. I'll keep this updated and refine it over the course of the summer.
