Free Cricket for South Africans
The partnership between Hollywoodbets, SABC and CSA is a big step in making cricket accessible to all South Africans. By offering live broadcasts on free to air channels, the partnership aims to break down the barriers for fans who don’t have access to subscription services.
Pholetsi Moseki, Chief Executive Officer of Cricket South Africa, said: We are glad that cricket is being made available through free-to-air broadcast, ensuring access and inclusion for all fans around the country. We look forward to strengthening this partnership with the national broadcaster for many years to come.”
SABC Group CEO Nomsa Chabeli added that partnerships are key to getting premium sports content to more people. She thanked Hollywoodbets for being part of this initiative saying:
“Our relationship with Hollywoodbets is built on a common belief that South Africans deserve access to the best of leading South African and global sports events. We are grateful that Hollywoodbets understands and appreciates the value of the SABC brand and continues to leverage its unique reach and coverage across its platforms.”

As a local company, Hollywoodbets has always put sports first in South Africa. Hollywoodbets Operations Manager Morgan Shandu said: “As a proudly South African brand, we are honoured to contribute to making the national inbound tour broadcast accessible to even more South Africans. We are passionate about sports, and this partnership underscores our commitment to delivering live coverage of sports events to all South Africans.”
Hollywoodbets has also supported similar initiatives, including broadcasting the Rugby World Cup, the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), and the Olympic Games, reaching diverse audiences across the country.
With this partnership in place, South African cricket fans can look forward to live broadcasts of the national team’s matches. This will connect fans to their sport and the nation to their team. As Shandu concluded, “We wish our national team much success in their upcoming matches, knowing that their country is behind them all the way.”
