Adidas® Promotional Products and Cricket

Adidas® promotional products are on the backs and feet of famous players of the centuries-old sport of cricket. The bat-and-ball sport began in 16th century Tudor England, but is now played all over the world, due to the vast colonization of world nations by England over the past several centuries. In fact, international cricket's governing body, the ICC (International Cricket Council), is headquartered in Dubai, and the first ever game of international cricket was played between Canada and the United States in 1844. Test cricket, the oldest and longest form of cricket, is played on a grassy, dry field over the course of five days, with six hours of play per day separated by breaks for lunch and tea. (It is a British game, after all.) Each team has 11 players, and substitutions are only allowed in cases of injury or illness. Test cricket is a slow game of endurance in contrast to the speedier and newer Twenty20 cricket (originally created for domestic matches in England), and fans will set aside hours and days for ardent match-watching. In 1990, Adidas® developed custom shoes for Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar, considered one of the greatest batsmen in cricket's history, and to this day he wears Adidas® promotional products.

Adidas® Promotional Products and The Ashes

The Ashes, one of the most famous games in international cricket, indicates the high visibility of Adidas® promotional products. Played since 1882, the Ashes are a Test cricket series played every other summer between two great rivals: England and Australia. The rivalry is named after its prize, an urn that supposedly contains the ashes of the wickets from the teams' first match, and whichever team wins the series keeps the Ashes for the next two years (not to mention bragging rights). This historic rivalry draws enormous crowds every other year to Australia and England, alternately, and both teams, sponsored by Adidas, show up decked in Adidas® promotional products.
