Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], July 4: Cycle Pure Agarbathi, India's leading agarbathi manufacturer and a prominent member of the international cricket community, is the title sponsor for the Three-Test series between India and the West Indies in the Caribbean. For the Frank Worrell trophy traditionally contested by the two countries, the 2023 series will be called 'Cycle Pure Agarbathi Test Series'.

This milestone match will take place at the renowned Queen's Park Oval in Trinidad, from the 20th of July to the 24th of July.

Cycle Pure Agarbathi recognizes and celebrates this unifying power of cricket. Through this sponsorship, the brand aims to not only support the game but also contribute to the larger objective of spreading hope and positivity. Cycle Pure Agarbathi firmly believes that sports, like cricket, have the potential to inspire and uplift individuals, communities, and nations, even in challenging times.
The series will also feature three One-Day Internationals, and five Twenty20 matches. The tour opens with a Test match at Windsor Park in Dominica, on the 12th of July and conclude on the 16th of July.
Announcing the partnership, Arjun Ranga, Managing Director, Cycle Pure Agarbathi, said, "At Cycle Pure, one of our primary objectives is to foster and empower young talent. We firmly believe that everyone has a reason to pray even during a match and hence cricket serves as a unifying force, transcending borders and bringing people together. It is with immense delight that we announce our title sponsorship for the India vs West Indies 2023 tour. This partnership presents us with a unique opportunity to propagate the values of unity, prayer, and hope not only for the Indian cricket team as they represent our nation on the international stage, but also for every individual across the country. We extend our heartfelt wishes and the very best of luck to the Indian cricket team for this momentous tour and I am eagerly looking forward to witnessing the 100th historic match between the two sides."
