Sydney: Cricket Australia have signed a four-year agreement with energy provider Alinta Energy, potentially laying to rest concerns over a financial fallout from the ball-tampering scandal in March.
The West Australian company will become the men’s national team’s shirt sponsor across all three formats for home matches. Financial terms were not disclosed.
“We are delighted to welcome Alinta Energy on board as the principal partner of Cricket Australia, and for them to feature on the playing shirts of the Australian men’s cricket team,” CA chief executive James Sutherland said.
Alinta replace Qantas Airways, although the national carrier remains a key sponsor and will continue to be the shirt partner for overseas tours.
