Three famous venues, all at the coast, will host the matches: Newlands, St George’s Park, and Boland Park, all of which hosted ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup fixtures 20 years ago.

The broadcasts, to be produced by the International Cricket Council, will be largely female-led and include half-hour build-ups.

Post-match, the broadcasts will include shots of the players leaving the field, scorecards, the Player of the Match interview, followed by the points table and a recap of the winning moment.

ICC TV will then come back on air for the conclusion, which will include interviews with both captains, a brief round-up of the match and a look ahead to the next one.

The ICC Women’s World Cup is one of four major pillars of SuperSport’s “Here for Her” campaign that is dedicated to creating awareness, engagement, talkability and promoting the outstanding achievements of women in sport both locally and abroad.

SuperSport’s Social Corner will feature an all-female cast, including Nqobile Mahlambi, Kelsey Petersen Bontle Modiselle, Zenande Funani and Hlubi Radebe for selected fixtures.

Plus content creators will engage with fans, showcase behind-the-scenes content and highlight the best moments on and off the field, focusing primarily on lifestyle, engagement, stadium activities and vibes sure to entice both cricket and non-cricket fans to experience the best that South Africa and the ICC Cricket World Cup has on offer.

DStv viewers will also be able to catch daily highlights on Catch Up with repeats also scheduled on SuperSport.

Matches will also be streamed on the DStv app.
