MUMBAI: ESPN Star Sports (ESS) will re-launch its online game Super Selector on 22 September to coincide with the ICC Champions Trophy and Airtel Champions League T20.
In the latest version of Super Selector, there are two leagues - ‘Apna League‘ for fans and the ‘Special Media League‘ for the media fraternity. The broadcaster had first launched the game in 2001.
The Super Selector Game is based on the International Cricket Council (ICC) cricket season. It will also consist of the Indian Premier League (IPL), Champions Twenty20 League tournament and a couple of other non-ICC tournaments.
The game is split into multiple stages and there are three Game Weeks within each stage. Prizes will be awarded to the highest point scoring managers of Game Days and Stages.
The game will offer Wap availability, SMS alert, desktop widgets, integration with Facebook, Friendster and Orkut, Forums and expert Blogs.
The winner of the Special Media League will get a cricket bat signed by the broadcaster‘s commentary team. There will be prizes for the top three finishers in the media section. There will also be consolation prizes for the top 10.
