Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) has appointed ThinkCube Systems Ltd., in consortium with Content I Asia Ltd., as the official Broadcast and Events Rights partner for its domestic tournaments and inbound tours of the Sri Lanka Youth and Emerging teams.

This partnership, effective from 24 April, represents a significant milestone in the continued growth and visibility of Sri Lanka’s domestic, youth, and emerging cricket.

The agreement grants the consortium the exclusive rights to broadcast and manage the following events:

1) All Men’s domestic tournaments

2) Inbound tours of the Sri Lanka Men’s ‘A’ Team, Emerging Team, and Under-19 Team

3) Inbound tours of the Sri Lanka Women’s ‘A’ Team and Women’s Under-19 Team.

The matches will be shown live on Talent TV (free-to-air), the official channel of ThinkCube Systems Ltd., and also available on the channel’s OTT platform, www.talenttv.lk and Sri Lanka Cricket YouTube Channel.

Talent TV is accessible island-wide via frequencies UHF 47 (Island-wide), UHF 22 (Colombo), UHF 28 (Southern Province), UHF 32 (Karagahathenna), and UHF 56 (Ratnapura).

“This partnership represents a transformational shift in how we promote and showcase domestic, Sri Lankan youth and emerging cricket.

Sri Lanka Cricket is confident this partnership will significantly broaden the reach and the exposure of its domestic, youth, and emerging cricket, benefiting all stakeholders, including players, fans, and sponsors.

By pairing enhanced production and broadcast quality with our own nationwide free-to-air channel Talent TV and partnerships with leading international broadcasters, we will bring every match into homes across the island and to audiences worldwide.
