UNICEF to Take Over Lord’s for England vs West Indies Match
UNICEF to take over Lord’s when England play West Indies, as the ICC, UNICEF UK, and the ECB host a special matchday takeover to raise funds and awareness for UNICEF’s projects supporting children around the world.
Nabhaan Rizwan, the two-time BAFTA-nominated actor, will be part of the activation and walk out with the World Cup trophy along with former England cricketer Isa Guha. Rizwan said, “As a huge cricket fan, I can’t wait to see England play West Indies for this ICC Women’s T20 World Cup game, during which fans will also be able to donate to support UNICEF’s work for every child.”
Supporting UNICEF UK’s Making Childhood Unstoppable Initiative
The activation will also support UNICEF UK’s Making Childhood Unstoppable initiative, the ICC said. “The ICC Women’s T20 World Cup is a powerful platform to bring people together, and this matchday takeover at Lord’s is an important opportunity to support UNICEF’s life-changing work for children around the world. Through Cricket 4 Good, our partnership with UNICEF continues to show how cricket can create impact beyond the boundary, and we hope fans at Lord’s and those watching globally will get behind this cause on 24 June.”
