Below are the technical specification outlining how to make and upload files for the Scoreboards for the 2020/21 International cricket season. Scoreboards are advertising display options that usually sit around a big screen. These are a mix of digital and printed signage. MKTG will alert you if you are required to make this spec.
Venues and specs are subject to change as the fixture is finalised.

Include trim marks and colour bars.
What works best

- Bold logos and type
- Aim to fill the full height of the LED with your content
- Dark backgrounds with light text / logos
- Short messages
What to avoid

- Long messages or content spaced far apart
- White backgrounds or large amounts of white content
