Media Engagements for Super 8s
Due to play travel play of most teams in the Super 8s schedule and to ensure we are providing the best possible chance for teams to speak with accredited media in person, we have now confirmed a revised media engagement plan for the next two weeks.
Teams with a play travel play schedule will do an embargoed pre-match press conference following their match day presser the day before MD-1. If you aren’t able to attend in person, we ask you to send in questions to the ICC Media Manager in-country and copying in media@icc-cricket.com ahead of the press conference. If a team is doing an embargoed press conference following play, there will be no mixed zone.
In addition, if a team stays in-country, press conferences will be as normal on match day-1 in person.
For confirmation of each day’s media engagements please follow the daily advisories.
