Solid partnership for Sydney's ANZ Stadium

Sydney's ANZ Stadium has announced a new partnership with Twenty20 sensation David Warner.
Warner, the exciting NSW batsman who has taken Twenty20 by storm, has been appointed an official ANZ Stadium Cricket Ambassador.
The relationship comes as ANZ Stadium prepares to expand its cricket credentials with international Twenty20 set to debut at the venue in 2012.
A delighted Warner explained "I've played plenty of domestic cricket at ANZ Stadium and itâs always been a great place to play.
"The prospect of playing for my country at the same ground is really exciting.
"International Twenty20 cricket in front of a packed ANZ Stadium â it would be a thrill.
"Becoming an ANZ Stadium Cricket Ambassador will be a great opportunity to connect further with the fans and hopefully help people get pumped up for the Australia v India T20 clash in 2012."
The new role will mean plenty of fan interaction for Warner with cricket clinics, guest appearances and an exclusive website column all on the agenda.
Warner will also be the face of a campaign to encourage cricket fans to pre-register their interest in the 2012 ANZ Stadium international.
ANZ Stadium Managing Director Daryl Kerry said that "it's great to have David on board.
"There's no doubt he is one of the most exciting T20 players in the country, if not the world, and some of his finest cricketing moments have played out at ANZ Stadium.
"With ANZ Stadium now Sydney's home of Twenty20 cricket, I am sure we're about to see a whole lot more."
Warner exploded onto the international scene with a breathtaking 89 from 43 balls in his Twenty20 debut against South Africa in 2008-09.
With that call up, he became the first man since 1877 to play for Australia before playing first-class cricket.
