MUMBAI: To feed the appetite of cricket fans in Indonesia, ESPN STAR Sports and Kablevision jointly announced that they had reached an agreement to bring the 'best of Live ESPN STAR Sports cricket' to fans in the country.

This announcement follows the launch of a similar service on CABLE TV in Hong Kong a month earlier.

International cricket matches which will be carried on Channel 53 (Best of ESPN STAR Sports Cricket) are taken from a combination of cricket matches on the India feeds of both ESPN and STAR Sports channels. Original commentary in English will be provided.

While not a full 24-hour service, the new cricket channel will provide comprehensive event coverage of test matches as well as triangular and one-day internationals.
