Star-studded commentary line-up for Betway SA20 Season 3

When Betway SA20 launches for the much awaited Season 3 on January 9, 2025, to February 8, 2025, internationally renowned former cricket players Stuart Broad, Robin Uthappa, AB de Villiers, and Kevin Pietersen will provide entertainment from the SuperSport commentary box.


Broad, the winner of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup, is prepared to provide top-notch entertainment at the third iteration of Africa's top international T20 franchise competition. After retiring from cricket in 2023, Broad started his commentary career with SuperSport, where he was one of the featured pundits for Betway SA20 Season 2.

Robin Uthappa, the winner of the 2007 T20 World Cup, will also be on this year's dazzling English language panel. After a strong Indian Premier League career, primarily with the Kolkata Knight Riders, Mumbai Indians, and Chennai Super Kings, the former India T20 international batter has a plethora of experience about the 20-over game.

Former Proteas captains Shaun Pollock and Ashwell Prince, as well as Chris Morris, a former Proteas T20 all-rounder, are other well-known analysts. Mpumelelo "Pommie" Mbangwa, who is regarded as one of the sport's leading speakers worldwide, will also be in the commentary box to provide spectators with his eminent voice and knowledgeable analysis.

Premier League presenter and anchor Julia Stuart will also return to the league to cover the eagerly awaited games from the boundary lines and the stands, where fervent fans will be captivated by top-notch entertainment.

In Betway SA20 Season 3, Your World of Champions has once again gone above and beyond to provide viewers an experience they won't soon forget, just as in Seasons 1 and 2.

"We're excited to have put together a team of world-class commentators and presenters for Betway SA20 Season 3," stated Graeme Smith, Commissioner of the Betway SA20 League. We have catered to our broad audience in South Africa and around the world, and we are especially happy to have some of the best former players and gifted storytellers from around the world joining the team. Their knowledge and enthusiasm will guarantee that our coverage stays competitive with the best worldwide.

"SuperSport takes pride in having the best and most knowledgeable presenters, commentators, and analysts in all of sport on the continent," stated Rendani Ramovha, CEO of SuperSport. It contributes to our status as the largest sports broadcaster in Africa and among the world's most active live sports broadcasters. In terms of analyzing the thrilling matches and providing fans with entertainment at home, we have once again made sure that Betway SA20 Season 3 offers the best. 

"In addition to their expertise and love of cricket, this season's panel of experts and commentators will prioritize entertaining to keep up with the action both on and off the field. Look forward to many more events with our commentators, analysts, presenters, and content creators at each of the six franchise venues during the tournament. SuperSport will also bring fans closer to the action in Season 3 with a range of captivating in-stadium and digital fan activities.

For Betway SA20, award-winning sportscaster Motshidisi Mohono, who is known for her astute observations and captivating personality, is also expected to return to the SuperSport lineup. Mohono will be playing with Mark Nicholas, Mike Haysman, and Natalie Germanos, the newest member of SuperSport's cricket team.

We take pride in creating a production that consistently raises the bar and is on par with international standards," Smith continued. We are constantly looking for methods to keep ahead of the competition, whether that means bringing in compelling innovation or acquiring the greatest technologies. We are thrilled to add a new and engaging experience to the broadcast, and our collaboration with SuperSport has been crucial in assisting us in realizing this goal.

"We look forward to working with the group of analysts and presenters we have for Season 3 of Betway SA20," Ramovha continued. The competition is much more than just showing off cricket skills on the pitch. Additionally, it brought previously marginalized individuals into the sport and reignited South Africans' passion for it. We are confident that with our commentary staff, spectators will take pleasure in and feel involved in every second of the competition.

SuperSport Cricket, DStv channel 212, will show all games live, and DStv Catch Up will provide highlights. There will be commentary available in English, Afrikaans, and isiXhosa for every match.
