We teamed up with the ICC to give you the chance to go to a match at the 2019 Cricket World Cup in England and Wales. More than 30,000 of you participated and over 200 tickets were won across 16 games. Thank you, this Cricket World Cup couldn’t have been so special without you! Hear from our winners below.
Winner – Semi Finals: India vs New Zealand
“It was a great surprise winning 3 tickets to the Semi Final. As I’m a massive Cricket Fan, I thoroughly enjoyed the day regardless of who was playing.
Uber covered everything from a pleasant meet and great service by the lovely Olivia, who wizzed us through ticketing to yet another surprise, the “Beyond the Boundary Experience” where we met the legendary Steve Waugh, touched the Trophy and were only a stone’s throw away from the crease.
The lovely Priya kindly offered us lunch and after the match we were treated to a feast at the swanky ‘Scene Restaurant’ in Spinningfields. And if that wasn’t enough, all our transport to and from the match was also covered by Uber, so it was nice finally being on the other side as a rider for the day.
I think Uber has really hit the stump (excuse the pun) with this great gesture and I look forward to participating in similar competitions. An Uber thanks, from me and my friends.” – Azadar, partner-driver since 2016.
