Subject: ESPN acquires Cricinfo effective from June 8, 2007
The Wisden Group has agreed to sell Cricinfo to ESPN, one of the world's leading multimedia providers of sports content and entertainment.
Cricinfo and ESPN have worked together for a number of years so there is an existing relationship between the two businesses.
They are delighted to be acquiring Cricinfo, as their existing, highly regarded online sports portfolio does not include a dedicated cricket site.
Cricinfo has developed and flourished over the last three or four years and we are a strong and successful business.
The Wisden Group board has decided to sell now because they believe that Cricinfo will flourish in an environment dedicated to sports broadcasting and entertainment.
Also that Cricinfo can be an important element of ESPN's international development and sees fantastic benefits for Cricinfo in terms of content as well as in terms of expertise and experience in our core business.
ESPN is a multinational business with offices around the world, but for the immediate future Cricinfo offices will continue to operate normally and there will be no changes to the day-to-day running of the business.
