SA20 ropes in CricViz on multi-year deal

London-based cricket data and analytics provider CricViz has signed a multi-year agreement with SA20 and will, therefore, provide data and analytics services to the South African franchise T20 league. 

The partnership, set to run until until 2026, will see the Betway SA20 gain full access to CricViz’s data science products, including “WinViz” and “Most Valuable Player” (MVP). The first-of-its-kind “Enhanced Commentary” service, powered by natural language generation AI, will also be used alongside CricViz’s “Wagon Wheel”, “Beehive”, “Pitchmap” and “Manhattan” data visualisations to engage fans at every level.

Michael Kivido, CricViz Managing Director, commented:

We are delighted to announce this partnership with Betway SA20 ahead of the second edition of this exciting tournament. Utilising the world’s largest cricket database, our insights, analytics and data science models will bring new levels of engagement to the competition’s growing and diverse fan base. We look forward to deepening our relationship with Betway SA20 over the coming years.

Graeme Smith, SA20 League Commissioner, added:

Alongside delivering a world-class cricket competition, fan engagement is an integral part of what we want to achieve. CricViz’s leading data and analytics tools will enable us to educate and inspire new fans while adding deeper insight for our existing audience.
