2022 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Dialog launches wish campaign in support of the Asian champions

The official sponsor of the National Cricket Team, Dialog Axiata PLC, launched a wish campaign in collaboration with Sri Lanka Cricket in support of the National T20 Cricket Team, who are eyeing the T20 world crown to be played from 16th October to 13th November 2022 in Australia.

After their resounding win against Pakistan in the finals of the Asia Cup 2022, which secured their sixth Asian title, Our Lions will be setting their sights on raising the bar higher and securing the World T20 title for the second time playing against the top sides in world cricket. 

The wishing portal can be accessed via a QR (Quick Response) code and/or website link that will open access to all cricket fans who want to wish and cheer on the national cricket team to win the T20 World Cup and bring home the cup after a dearth of eight long years. You can visit dlg.lk/apekollo to access the wishing portal and submit your wish to support the national cricket team and win exciting cricket memorabilia from Dialog. 

“I’m indeed thankful to the national team sponsor, Dialog Axiata, for supporting the game of cricket and believing in our young talent for almost a decade,” Dr. Jayantha Dharmadasa, Vice President – International Cricket of Sri Lanka Cricket, said. “The National team played exceptionally well at the recently concluded Asia Cup to emerge as the champs, and I would like to thank the Official sponsor of the National Cricket Team, for the pivotal role they played in supporting SLC to boost the confidence of the boys. A campaign such as this showcases that the whole country is behind the Lions and nurtures the much-needed morale boost to the players to bring home the cup.”
