Supersport, Africa's premier sports broadcaster, has unveiled their coverage plans for the 2015 Cricket World Cup (more than two weeks before the tournament starts, in comparison to two days before AFCON 2015)
As expected, every match will be broadcast live and in High Definition on Supersport 2 (which is available on DStv Mobile as well)
The commentary team will feature the likes of Shaun Pollock and Mpumelelo Mbangwa.
Every match the Proteas play in will have three commentary options: English, Afrikaans and isiXhosa.
Supersport's build up and analysis will be done from their excellent Studio 6 in Johannesburg and will be anchored by HD Ackerman.
He will be joined in studio by the likes of Kepler Wessels, Alviro Peterson, Morné van Wyk, Neil McKenzie, Robin Peterson and Ashwell Prince, among others.
These guys will also be complimented by state of the art touch screen technology and augmented reality, as seen during the Soccer World Cup last year.
There will also be live news updates on Supersport Blitz, Supersport 2 (in the form of a weekly Friday magazine show called Cricket World Cup Special {how creative}) and social media.
Providing the live updates will ne the excellent Mike Haysman, who will be joined by Supersport reporter, Crystal Arnold.
Guests that will be featured on the interviews done from Australia include Mark Nicholas, Rahul Dravid, Tom Moody and Ian Bishop.
Noticeably absent from the information Supersport released is which matches, if any will be shown live on a channel available on DStv's lower-tiered bouquets. With the last World Cup, all Protea games, along with other key games were available to lower-tiered subscribers, along with a daily one hour highlights show.
