Nissan Trophy Tour flagged off from Dharamsala

The countdown for the much awaited ICC World Twenty20 2016 tournament began today with Nissan India kick-starting the eight-city tour of the trophy here at Dharamsala. The trophy will now leave for Chandigarh.  



Arun Malhotra, Managing Director, Nissan Motor India Pvt. Ltd. said, ”Nissan and cricket have a lot in common. To celebrate our association with the sport and as a commemorative offering for cricket buffs across the country, we just launched ICC World Twenty20 limited editions of the Micra and Terrano at the just concluded Delhi Auti Expo,” he added.

The Nissan ICC World Twenty20 trophy embarked on its global journey in December 2015. It has visited 11 participating countries around the globe before arriving in India for the final leg of its tour. From Dharmshala, the trophy will travel to seven more cities – including all match venues – and in the process build up excitement for the tournament, which kicks-off on 8th March 2016.

The trophy tour, ahead of the main event, is a part of Nissan’s eight-year deal with International Cricket Council as a global sponsor. The global automaker is sponsoring a host of worldwide tournaments including the ICC Cricket World Cup, ICC Champions Trophy and ICC Twenty20, along with the Under 19 tournament and Women’s cricket.
