The ICC World Twenty20 India 2016 trophy will embark on a
global journey from Mumbai on Sunday, 13 December, before returning to
New Delhi on Monday, 1 February.
As part of the
Nissan Trophy Tour, the trophy will visit 12 countries taking part in
the tournament which will be staged in India from 11 March to 3 April
2016.
During its journey, the trophy will be on
display at domestic and international matches, as well as at various
public places, which will enable the fans to capture a very special
moment with the most prestigious silverware in the shortest format of
the world game. Details of the trophy’s public appearances will be
announced by the host boards closer to the time.
ICC Chief Executive David Richardson said: "The Nissan ICC World Twenty20 2016 Trophy Tour has been intended to advance the competition as well as to connect with our fans and give them the first chance to draw near to the trophy, which will be lifted by the triumphant commander on 3 April in Kolkata. We might want to express gratitude toward Nissan for their sponsorship of the Trophy Tour and we are certain it will be a major accomplishment as it goes over the world in front of the ICC World Twenty20 in India one year from now."
Roel de Vries, Nissan Corporate Vice President and worldwide head of promoting and mark system, included: "We banded together with the ICC to convey cricket fans closer to the diversion. Fans feel thrill and energy while watching a cricket match. Those are the same feelings we need individuals to encounter while driving a Nissan. We trust the Nissan Trophy Tour will assemble fervor around the globe in front of the ICC World Twenty20."
