The men’s national cricket team final against India today will be followed in July with the double defending Rugby World Cup champions, the Springboks, taking on Europe’s top side, Ireland, in two home tests,” said SuperSport CEO Rendani Ramovha.
SABC GCEO, Nomsa Chabeli said: “The SABC has a pivotal role to inspire and build national pride and patriotism among citizens, and this agreement is one of the many initiatives that the organisation has been working hard on to ensure that citizens participate in major historic country moments. We are thrilled that our audiences will be part of the Proteas’ momentous occasion during the ICC T20 Men’s World Cup final match.
“The SABC’s broadcast will start from 3.30pm on SABC2 and our radio stations will carry the updates.
“We are also excited that we have also clinched a deal for two Springbok Test matches to be broadcast on Saturday July 6 and Saturday July 13 at 9.30pm, and this is testament to our commitment to inclusivity and ensuring that our diverse audiences’ needs are catered for.”
