The ICC, UNICEF UK and the ECB will host a "special matchday takeover" at Lord's when England and West Indies play their Women's T20 World Cup group 2 match at the venue on June 24, "to raise both funds and awareness for UNICEF's projects supporting children around the world."
Nabhaan Rizwan, the two-time BAFTA-nominated actor, will be part of the activation and walk out with the World Cup trophy along with former England cricketer Isa Guha. "As a huge cricket fan, I can't wait to see England play West Indies for this ICC Women's T20 World Cup game, during which fans will also be able to donate to support UNICEF's work for every child," Rizwan said in an ICC statement.
The activation will also support UNICEF UK's Making Childhood Unstoppable initiative, the ICC said. "The ICC Women's T20 World Cup is a powerful platform to bring people together, and this matchday takeover at Lord's is an important opportunity to support UNICEF's life-changing work for children around the world. Through Cricket 4 Good, our partnership with UNICEF continues to show how cricket can create impact beyond the boundary, and we hope fans at Lord's and those watching globally will get behind this cause on 24 June."
England and West Indies are both undefeated at the 2026 Women's T20 World Cup, with three wins each, and the winner of Wednesday's fixture has a strong chance of finishing on top of Group 2.
