The International Cricket Council (ICC) has expanded its partnership with DP World, a provider of global smart end-to-end supply chain logistics.
The expansion agreement sees DP World become a Premier Partner of the ICC, thus signifying their long-term commitment and mission to grow the sport of cricket around the world.
The multi-year partnership is to now continue for a further four years and also cover the upcoming ICC Women’s T20 World Cup later this year.
DP World is already providing smart logistics solutions for the imminent ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, which includes the movement of pitches from Florida to New York in the US. The company will also deliver the match ball at all the World Cup games as well as act as the official presenter of the Trophy Tour.
Anurag Dahiya, Chief Commercial Officer, ICC, commented:
“DP World has been a highly supportive and active partner of the ICC, and we are very pleased with their upgrade to Premier Partner status, which highlights the significant value our partnerships bring to global brands. ICC partnerships are based on shared values, and DP World has consistently shown a strong commitment to growing the game at every level globally. The ICC is proud to continue our journey at the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup and beyond, confident that working with industry experts like DP World makes expanding cricket to new regions and audiences much easier.”
Daniel van Otterdijk, Chief Communications Officer, DP World, said:
“From the delivery of the World Cup pitches to New York, to our continued efforts to grow the game through our Beyond Boundaries initiative, DP World’s partnership with the International Cricket Council has seen us collaborate on empowering people across the world to enjoy the sport at every level. This summer’s ICC Men’s T20 World Cup sees the world’s most iconic players take to pitches transported by DP World’s specialist smart logistics expertise. It makes perfect sense, given all we have achieved to date, that we progress to being a Premier Partner as we continue to strive towards the growth of the game for people of all ages and backgrounds all around the world. With our operations there are no limits or boundaries to where cricket can go.”
