ICC picks Sportradar as data rights partner Ali ready to spearhead Pakistan's pace attack

DUBAI: The International Cricket Council (ICC) on Sunday announced a global partnership with Sportradar, making them the official data distribution and official betting live streaming partner of the global governing body for cricket. Spanning 275 top-tier matches, the partnership covers eight of the ICC's leading men's and women's tournaments, starting in October with the Men's T20 World Cup hosted by India in the UAE and Oman, through to the Men's Cricket World Cup in 2023, also hosted by India.

LAHORE: Hasan Ali announced his arrival at the world stage during Pakistan's successful ICC Champions Trophy campaign in 2017 when he was named as the best bowler of the tournament. That was Hasan's first global event after the pacer had made his Pakistan debut in 2016. The upcoming ICC Men's T20 World Cup, which begins for Pakistan on October 24 with a high-octane clash against India, will be Hasan's first T20 World Cup and the 27-yearold is eager to spearhead Pakistan's pace attack with his exemplary performances.
