The British Prime Minister shared his excitement about harnessing the “magic of cricket” to engage more young people in physical activity by 2030.“I love cricket, that’s no secret… I first experienced the magic of cricket watching Hampshire play at my local ground in Southampton as a child,” said Sunak. The investment aims to provide 2,500 pieces of new equipment to participating schools, with a goal of getting 930,000 pupils involved in cricket over the next five years.
