Dream11 has ended its jersey sponsorship deal with the BCCI for the Indian cricket team. This move comes in the aftermath of the newly enacted Promotion and Regulation of Online Gaming Bill, 2025, which forbids real-money gaming and prohibits related advertising and sponsorships
The withdrawal leaves India without a front-of-jersey sponsor just a fortnight before the start of the Asia Cup, scheduled to kick off on September 9
Dream11 and the BCCI have mutually agreed to terminate the ₹358 crore, three-year sponsorship deal (initially signed in July 2023), thanks to an adverse legal environment for real-money gaming firms
