Etisalat, one of the world’s leading telecom groups in emerging markets, announced it has won the rights from Star TV Network to broadcast the most anticipated ICC Men’s T20 World Cup across the MENA region. It will partner with STARZPLAY, MENA region’s leading SVOD service, to ensure all cricket fans across the region enjoy the full series.

The broadcast rights belong exclusively to Etisalat and the partnership with STARZPLAY will give cricket fans access to all 45 matches taking place in the UAE and Oman from October 17 to November 14, 2021.

Regional cricket fans eagerly waiting for the T20 World Cup can enjoy the cricket frenzy and live the game on CricLife Max channel via Etisalat’s eLife TV, Switch TV and the STARZPLAY app in UAE, while subscribers in the rest of the MENA region can enjoy the game exclusively via STARZPLAY.
