IndusInd Bank is delighted to announce its multi-year association with the International Cricket Council (ICC) as a global partner for the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023 and future ICC Men’s events.
As a global partner for ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023, IndusInd Bank will access an array of activities and promotions for its customers, employees and for cricket fans. The opportunity will be through ownership of the flagship Anthem Companion programme, in which selected customers of IndusInd Bank and employees will have a chance for their children to participate in the teams walk out onto the field before the start of play for the national anthems. Other elements of the experience include on-field access and engaging brand activations.
As a part of this association, IndusInd Bank will have an access to a suite of branding and content assets to build connection with its customers, employees and stakeholders.
The ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023 starts on 5 October with the tournament final at the world’s largest cricket stadium in Ahmedabad on 19 November.
