“Our commitment to Sydney Thunder reflects our deep belief in the positive influence of sport on fans, players, and the wider community. We are honoured to continue as Principal Partner and once again support community cricket clubs through the Cricket NSW Foundation.

In BBL13, we supported 17 clubs across NSW by donating various cricket balls. For most cricket clubs, buying cricket balls for all levels of play is one of the largest expenses during the season. With that in mind, for BBL14, we will once again donate cricket ball packs through the Cricket NSW Foundation to community clubs for each six hit by a Sydney Thunder player in the competition, ” said Andrew Chepul, Co-founder and CEO of ColCap Financial Group.
