Women’s Cricket Chat are proud to announce PTI Digital Group will be their headline sponsor for the duration of The Hundred.
In what is already proving to be a bumper summer for women’s cricket, this partnership will further the much-deserved coverage of the sport by combining the passion of the team at Women’s Cricket Chat with the digital prowess of PTI.
Founded in early 2021 as the brainchild of Alexandra Pereira and Hannah Thompson, Women’s Cricket Chat has established itself as a popular and engaging route to women’s cricket news, insight and debate. Their in-depth interviews with some of the most notable members of the women’s cricket community have attracted some of the best female cricketers in the UK as guests, and their notoriety is increasing rapidly within the cricketing world.
PTI Digital Group are celebrating summer 2021 as a “PTI summer of cricket” and have been working to support the technology and digital delivery across all formats of international men’s and women’s matches including the World Test Championship and the historic test match between England’s women and India’s women. They have also been working in the domestic sector with counties including, but not limited to, Gloucestershire CCC, Glamorgan CCC and Edgbaston.
The partnership will be a long-term relationship and commences with the support of five weekly video shows that will feature on the Women’s Cricket Chat YouTube and across social media channels. This content will be presented and produced by Georgie Heath for the five-week duration of The Hundred.
Videos will include insights into matches as well as player interviews, analysis and coaching clinics with Olivia Rae, head of Rae Coaching Clinic.
Georgie Heath said: “This partnership has got me excited all over again for this amazing summer of cricket. With the support of the team at PTI, Women’s Cricket Chat now have the scope to provide more video content that viewers will find informative but also fun and entertaining. Seeing what PTI have already achieved across all forms of the game is something that makes me extremely proud that they have chosen to partner with us.”
WCC Co-founders Hannah Thompson and Alexandra Pereira said: “PTI Digital Group are leading experts in the digital and sport space so to partner with them to enable us to produce this content is wonderful. Their support will allow us to do more during the competition while tapping into their digital expertise to drive more eyes on the game.”
Mike Bohndiek, CEO at PTI Digital Group said: “PTI are proud to be supporting the growth of women’s cricket both through our work in the professional side of the game and now through our partnership with Women’s Cricket Chat. Developing these channels, run by knowledgeable and passionate people, helps grow the exposure for the women’s game from a fans real-world perspective. We look forward to working with them, starting with The Hundred coverage and are pleased to help them extend their reach in this important summer of cricket.”
