National Australia Bank’s Scotland-based
subsidiary, Clydesdale Bank, is to sponsor the UK’s 40 over cricket
competition in a three year deal agreed with the the England and
Wales Cricket Board (ECB).

The Clydesdale Bank 40 is set to become a
regular weekend fixture throughout the UK summer and will be one of
three competitions making up the 2010 UK cricket domestic
season. 

In a statement the Glasgow-headquartered bank
said it has been a long time supporter of cricket and the
ECB.  It has been involved as an official partner of the
domestic limited overs Twenty20 competition between 2005 and 2009
and also has links with various English counties and individual
players.

“This continued investment underlines
Clydesdale Bank’s support of domestic cricket. It is exciting for
Clydesdale Bank to be part of cricket’s further development in the
UK,” said Dean Cutbill, Clydesdale Bank director. 

“The 40-over competition has been adapted this
year to further increase its appeal. As well as traditional cricket
fans, we hope that the new supporters who have taken to the
Twenty20 game will join us in supporting the Clydesdale Bank
40.”
