World’s best cricket talent named Nissan Brand Ambassadors

JOHANNESBURG, South Africa – Nissan will continue its relationship with top cricket talent after naming number one test bowler in the world, Kagiso Rabada, and former South African captain and cricket legend Shaun Pollock, as brand ambassadors. The move further leverages Nissan's global sponsorship deal with the International Cricket Council (ICC).

Rabada enters his third year as Nissan brand ambassador following a hugely successful 2018 both on and off the field with Nissan. The 23-year-old not only heads up the official ICC Test bowling rankings, but also currently ranks fourth on the ODI bowling rankings.

"I'm thrilled to be partnering with Nissan for a third year," said Rabada. "We've done some great stuff together and I'm looking forward to bigger and better things in 2019. Nissan is an innovative brand that I really enjoy being a part of. I love seeing how Nissan brings technology to their cars. It makes the driving experience so much more exciting."
