With the 10th edition of the World Cup having ended with India beating Sri Lanka in the final in Mumbai on Saturday, the International Cricket Council unveiled the logo for the 2015 event in Australia and New Zealand as part of a symbolic handover to the co-hosts.
"As the ICC Cricket World Cup 2011 draws to a close in Mumbai today, the logo for the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 to be held in Australia and New Zealand is unveiled as part of a symbolic handover from the successful 2011 hosts to their counterparts four years hence," the ICC said in a statement, issued prior to Saturday’s final.
The ICC received applications for the design from across the world, before awarding it to the international agency, FutureBrand, whose Australian arm was invited to produce the logo for the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015.
