Desert Vipers CEO joined Kitch and Neeil to discuss the work the Desert Vipers and DP World ILT20 have been doing to raise awareness of the issues of sustainability and, more broadly, the climate crisis.

On Saturday the 3rd of February 2024, The sustainability cricket match has whole range of activities and initiatives for fans to get involved.

The Dubai International Cricket Stadium will green, literally and metaphorically, on the day, with recycling, upcycling and activities highlighting sustainability inside and outside the venue.

Fans are also going to be given green shirts to wear, the Vipers will be playing in green, and you can also bring in your old and unwanted sports kit so that they can be put to good use by those who need them.

And if you fancy getting involved in the day by attending the match – or any Vipers match this season, for that matter – it couldn’t be easier to get hold of tickets.
