Cricket colour conflicts
Due to the direct line of sight with players and umpires on the field, on-ground displays and ball colour require careful consideration.
All stadium content must be approved by ICC match officials within 24 hours of each match. During the season, content colours may need to change if requested by players or match officials.
Content will be screened by ICC officials before the season begins, shortly after the first deadline. To avoid last-minute changes, it is recommended content is delivered in time for this screening.
Uses a red ball, so if you have a large amount of red in your creative, you should consider supplying a non-red version as a back up.
These are day/night tests and use a pink ball, so if you have a large amount of pink/red/orange in your creative, you should consider supplying a non-pink/red/orange version as a back up.
Uses a white ball, so if you have a large amount of white in your creative, you should consider supplying a dulled or reverse option as a back up.

End of wicket LED specs
You are able to supply static or animated content for this space.
If creating animated content for in-match display, you will need to also provide a static version of your creative for use during play.
Animated content may loop several times before play begins, so we recommend making your content loop.
