By hosting the much-awaited finale, Rooter is bringing back the excitement into domestic, first-class cricket which is often eclipsed by more marketable formats such as the T20. Its prediction game during live matches will further add fillip to this vision and will help convert more casual viewers into attentive fans through real-time interactions and predictions. Rooter also displays live scores for matches and allows supporters to discover and connect with others, thereby enhancing the viewing experience for sports fans.

Recently, Rooter also showcased the entire Indian Super League season on its app, leading to tremendous traction on its platform and augment viewership numbers for the event itself. Hosting the Ranji final is a part of its overall endeavour to turn the spotlight on Indian sporting events which are as exhilarating as their international counterparts.

Speaking on the move, Piyush, Founder & CEO, Rooter, said, “Ranji Trophy has given birth to some of the most formidable legends of the Indian cricketing world. It has been a platform for high quality and technically superlative play. However, over the years, the tournament has been overshadowed by other formats that are more easily consumed, we are committed to showcasing the best of domestic sporting events and engage fans in ways that help them rediscover how electrifying these events can be.”
