HK Now TV will or will not show Cricket World Cup?

After S China Morning Post item on apparent doubts that Now TV cricket channel will show the Cricket World Cup, I emailed customer service; just received email inc:

We understand your interest in the Cricket World Cup, kindly be informed that we have further checked with our content provider, please rest assured that we will response to you once the findings is completed.

Some letters in the paper today on this issue - and on woeful customer service should Now not air the cricket (plus the channel being expensive anyway: esp if you consider there's nothing for HK - just feed from elsewhere, with ads for India).
Maybe, then, can keep fingers crossed.

This in email from Now TV late yesterday:

We announced today that ESPN / Star Sports Cricket Channel will be
enhanced by the addition of ICC Cricket World Cup 2007. Please kindly
refer to our service website for the latest updates on the program
schedules.

Hooray!
- and, may hope that they were hoping to show the world cup all along, not prompted by protests and newspaper items.
