The International Cricket Council (ICC) has given fans around the world a unique chance to win tickets to ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2019 by sharing the way they play cricket. ICC’s brand new #WorldwideWickets campaign has been launched in order to celebrate the different ways the game has been played worldwide. The best picture will be placed in the ten CWC19 Host Cities in the build-up to the tournament, giving fans a chance to win tickets to their local venue.
The best ten #WorldwideWickets posts will be shortlisted by CWC19 Ambassadors and then fans will vote for an overall winner who will get the chance to win the grand prize of tickets and travel for two to the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2019 Final at Lord’s on July 14. Here is the detailed post regarding the same:
On Thursday, ICC launched the user-generated social media initiative which will encourage fans to share pictures and videos of where and how they play cricket across the world.
