Yahoo Cricket will be available on PhonePe Switch even after the completion of IPL 2020
Yahoo Cricket, a one-stop destination for cricket fans, has partnered with PhonePe, a digital payments platform to exclusively power the content for PhonePe’s cricket hub ‘Switch Gully’ through the cricket season ahead.
Users of PhonePe can now catch all the live-action while they transact, with live scores, real-time cricket news updates, and ball-by-ball commentary from Yahoo Cricket on ‘Switch Gully,’ available on the PhonePe homepage.
“This partnership uniquely positions Yahoo Cricket to deliver the latest scores, useful content and interactive experience to many more cricket fans at scale. PhonePe’s vast, diverse user base and phenomenal reach will enable fans across the country to enjoy updates of the latest cricketing action from the league,” said Nikhil Rungta, India Country Manager, Verizon Media.
With many more Indians turning to digital payments for their utilities and purchases online since the pandemic, cricket fans in the new normal can now track what’s happening on the field while they continue to transact on PhonePe.
Yahoo Cricket will be available on PhonePe Switch even after the completion of the upcoming Premier League.
Commenting on the partnership, Rituraj Rautela, Head of PhonePe Switch said, “We are excited to have Yahoo Cricket as a partner onboard PhonePe Switch. With this partnership, our 230 million users can now catch all the live cricketing action on the PhonePe app itself.”

In doing so, we also enable faster customer acquisition at lower costs and drive higher engagement for our partners.,” he further added.
