Matador BBQs One Day Cup Winners “Some plan b’s are smarter than others, don’t drink and drive.” NIGHTWATCHMAN NATHAN LYON Supporting the nightwatchmen of NSW We thank Cricket NSW for sharing our vision, to help develop and improve road safety across NSW. Our partnership with Cricket NSW continues to extend the Plan B drink driving message and engages the community to make positive transport choices to get home safely after a night out. With the introduction of the Plan B regional Bash, we are now reaching more Cricket fans and delivering the Plan B message in country areas. Transport for NSW look forward to continuing our strong partnership and wish the team the best of luck for the season ahead.
