Thabisa Mkhwanazi, KFC Public Affairs Director says “The KFC bucket is synonymous with bringing friends and families together in sharing finger lickin good experiences, which is what inspired us to take the iconic KFC bucket to one of our nation’s most loved sport. The KFC T20 International Series serves as a wonderful opportunity for KFC to not only affirm its commitment to serving everyone’s favourite chicken but to also be part of the best cricketing action in South Africa.  We look forward to bringing fans a little closer to the cricketing action and heroes through the #KFCBigBucket.”

To be part of the match day excitement and magic, cricket fans need to post a photo of themselves and their four mates on Twitter using #KFCBigBucket.

“We are looking forward to competing at home against a very strong Pakistan side in the KFC T20,” commented Cricket South Africa CEO Thabang Moroe.

“With the excitement generated in the 50 over games, the T20 series provides for both teams the perfect lead-in to the ICC World Cup which is a few months away. Our partner KFC have come up with an exciting activation that many of our fans will enjoy and contribute immensely to the attractive spectator experience that we as CSA pride ourselves in.”

As the official sponsor of the KFC T20 Internationals and associate sponsor of the Ram Slam T20 Challenge, KFC provided the KFC Mini-Cricket ambassadors the opportunity  to meet their heroes and be involved in first class cricket.KFC Mini-Cricket led, a nationwide search  in September 2012 to find KFC Mini-Cricket kid ambassadors. The programme has 100 000 children participating and the chosen ambassadors would get the chance to beball boys and girls, player escorts, and be involved in the coin toss at the T20 series which started with the tour against  New Zealand.  They will now have the opportunity to once again be an ambassador at the Pakistan series.

All the kids who attend these matches will get the chance to emulate their heroes in the KFC Action Zones. At these zones, kids get to hone their batting, bowling and fielding skills at various stations, allowing them to stay active for the duration of their time at the ground.

KFC will also  provide many more KFC Mini-Cricket kid ambassadors the opportunity to be involved in the game as ball boys and girlsat all the domestic T20 games that will take place across the country this year..
