Cricket South Africa is delighted to welcome yet another global brand giant and leading provider of first-class online entertainment, Betway Limited as Official Partner. This three year partnership sees Betway embraced into the CSA fold as Headline Event Partner of both the One Day International and Test formats for Proteas Men as well as Official Sponsor of the T20 Proteas Men’s team and Official Sponsor to the Momentum Proteas Women.

It is pleasing to have a mutually beneficial relationship with an organisation of integrity that will contribute towards the game of cricket in this country while we deliver on their objectives. We are beyond thrilled that in these challenging times, Betway reciprocates the belief in us that we have in them.”
