*The ANZAC Barbarians women’s and men’s teams did not play in the play-off.

One of the highlights of the PICC23 was the use of two of Australian Defence Force Cricket Frogbox systems to live-stream all matches through Cricket Fiji’s YouTube channel. This is the first livestream through Cricket Fiji’s newly created You Tube channel. The livestream interfaced with the MyCricket electronic live-scoring to enrich the viewer experience with match scores and status. Additionally, the live-stream was further boosted with the commentary by Mr Rahul Patil of the Cook Islands, who volunteered to commentate two matches per day; a morning and an afternoon match respectively. The live-stream was watched by hundreds of viewers per day, widening the reach that PICC23 gained into the Pacific and beyond.
