I get that there are fans of opposition teams in stadiums but it's about time each IPL team deliberately creates the atmosphere for their home games. #MumbaiIndians played Aaj Ki Raat while Rohit Sharma was walking off after being dismissed 🤦♂️

Ever wondered why Zomato sent the X-verse into a tizzy with the CoS hiring stunt? A short, hilarious and crisp take on the issue that's well worth your time!
Last week, Deepinder Goyal's hiring post blew up and attracted a ton of reactions!

Brilliant interview in @TOIIndiaNews
by @prajhegde ft. Nandan Kamath.
Terrific interview with @nandankamath in the TOI today. If you have anything to do with Indian sport, his book, Boundary Labs, is a must read. And this interview will help tell you why!

The world is getting increasingly dangerous - war, data, pandemics. Sport can be used to unify the world. However, cricket might be an issue as China 🇨🇳 & USA 🇺🇸 don't play cricket!

A must read if you, like me, have always associated the Feroz Shah Kotla stadium (the official name change notwithstanding) with the Pan Bahar brand.
Check out @jaideepjourno's latest for @TheSignalDotCo & subscribe because it's fast becoming my fav sports biz reportage in 🇮🇳
The Feroz Shah Kotla...err...Arun Jaitley Stadium (or, as some like to call it, the Pan Bahar Stadium) in Delhi is a prime example of how cluttered (and ugly) in-stadium advertising is in Indian cricket.
Ever wondered why we're so bad at it? 🧵 #sportsbiz
