The International Cricket Council (ICC) has announced a multi-year partnership extension agreement with UAE flag carrier, Emirates.
The new extension is for a period of eight-years and will take the partnership into its third decade.
Emirates will keep the naming rights to the (Emirates) ICC’s Elite Panel of Umpires and Match Referees, and the match officials will take to the field for the upcoming ICC Men’s T20 Cricket World Cup with Emirates’ “Fly Better” branding on their apparel.
Emirates will also continue to work with the ICC on fan engagement activities.
