Betway, the leading online sports betting and casino platform, has entered into a partnership with Major League Cricket (MLC) that will make it an official partner for the inaugural 2023 season.
One feature of the partnership will be the name of the T20 series, which will be known as “Major League Cricket powered by Betway“. Competitions will be held from 13 to 31 July.
Matches will be played at two different venues: Grand Prairie Stadium in Texas and Church Street Park in North Carolina.
“It’s with great pride to announce that we’re powering the inaugural Major League Cricket; the newest innovative cricket competition in the world,” said Anthony Werkman, CEO of Betway.
“Cricket is a globally renowned sport both we and our customers love, so we’re thrilled to be part of another new competition, which will aid the growth of the sport in the US and beyond.”
Six teams, namely the Los Angeles Knight Riders, MI New York, San Francisco Unicorns, Seattle Orcas, Texas Super Kings and Washington Freedom, will compete in the series and play 18 matches to determine the finalists for the MLC Championship.
Sameer Mehta, Co-Founder of Major League Cricket, said: “Major League Cricket is bringing the world’s best cricketers to America, so it is fitting that the historic inaugural season will be ‘Powered by Betway,’ who have become a renowned brand supporting global sports properties.
“We are thrilled by Betway’s commitment to growing cricket in America and we can’t wait for a memorable season to get underway soon.”
Elsewhere in the world, Dafabet has become the official betting partner for the upcoming Cricket West Indies series.
