Aramco recycling machines will be installed across all match venues for men’s T20 World Cup
The International Cricket Council (ICC) has over the last 24 hours announced two significant but dissimilar partnerships – a commercial deal with major Saudi Arabian oil company Aramco and a global tie-up with Unicef, the United Nations’ international children’s fund.
The Aramco deal, announced today (October 14), will see the corporation sponsor all major ICC events from now until the end of 2023, including the 2022 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup in Australia, the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup in South Africa, the ICC World Test Championship Final in the UK, and the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup in India.
The Saudi oil heavyweight has been allocated naming rights for ICC player of the match awards from the aforementioned tournaments.
The ICC has said the tie-up is “rooted in both organizations’ drive for excellence.”
At the men’s T20 World Cup, which begins in Australia tomorrow (October 15), Aramco recycling machines will be installed across all match venues, with the waste recycled from these machines to be “converted into clothing for future ICC events.”
