MPL Sports & BCCI add superfans during the Team India T20I jersey launch
Mumbai: With the World Cup just a little over a month away, there’s a new official Team India T20I Jersey around the corner. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and MPL Sports, the official kit partner, announced a new campaign called “#HarFanKiJersey” ahead of the launch.
MPL Sports has launched a microsite called Har Fan Ki Jersey (https://harfankijersey.mplsports.in/), where users can upload their stories of what makes them a true blue cricket fan. By doing so, they will have the opportunity to be an integral part of the jersey unveiling. As the stories get populated on the site, a part of the jersey will be uncovered, giving fans a sneak peek into the much-awaited kit for this year.
The new jersey will replace the Billion Cheers jersey, launched during last year’s World Cup, for all T20 format games.
Besides getting a first look at the jersey, users can also get a chance to be crowned a “superfan.” Once fans upload their stories, they will get a referral code, which when used by their friends and followers, will earn them points and a spot on a leaderboard. Rewards include discounts. The brand will also run contests on social media, giving users a chance to win match tickets as well as other money-can’t-buy experiences. Participation also guarantees a digital certificate of appreciation from MPL Sports and BCCI. The best superfan stories will be shared on the official MPL Sports social media pages as well.
The “#HarFanKiJersey” campaign aims to mobilise the billions of fans of the Indian cricket team, and give them a platform to share their passion for the game and the team.

Promotedge marks 11 years with expansion into D2C and performance marketing
Kolkata-based agency strengthens global footprint and launches new platforms.
MUMBAI: Promotedge has spent 11 years quietly building momentum and now it’s ready to take a much bigger leap. The Kolkata-based integrated marketing and branding agency, founded in 2015, has completed 11 years of steady growth, evolving from a local creative firm into a full-service marketing partner with a growing international presence. With operational hubs in the US and Canada through its platform PromotEdgeDigital, the agency now serves clients across India, the US, Canada, Australia, and the Middle East.
Over the past 11 years, Promotedge has partnered with more than 200 businesses across diverse industries. Guided by its “Digitally Desi” philosophy which blends cultural insight with data-driven execution, the agency offers end-to-end services including web solutions, digital marketing, creative design, brand planning, and audio-visual production.
In its eleventh year, the agency made significant strides by developing branded IPs and content series for the automotive and industrial sectors, creating audio-visual content for international sporting bodies like the Fédération Internationale de Volleyball, and strengthening its performance marketing capabilities, particularly on quick-commerce platforms such as Zepto, Blinkit, Flipkart, and Swiggy Instamart.
To further boost its D2C focus, Promotedge has integrated the operations of Fizzle Digital into its performance marketing division, now led by founders Avi Saraf and Jhalak Agarwal. The agency continues to serve B2B clients in sectors like steel, energy, engineering, and infrastructure.
Beyond traditional services, Promotedge has introduced new platforms. DesiMachines is an online marketplace for heavy engineering and construction equipment, supported by two financial institutions and six top OEMs. The agency also launched Pexora, a joint venture with Prodigy focused on workspace design, branding, experiential marketing, and Digital Out-of-Home (DOOH) solutions in Eastern and North Eastern India.
Additionally, Promotedge nurtures The Trip Space, a boutique travel brand that curates personalised, luxury journeys for high-net-worth travellers.
Promotedge CEO Saurav Agarwal said, “PromotEdge has always been built with a long-term vision. Our goal is to develop capabilities that provide long-term value to our clients.”
As it approaches its 12th year, the agency plans to expand its global clientele, deepen D2C and performance marketing capabilities, invest in AI-enabled solutions, and strengthen its platform-led initiatives.
From a modest start in Kolkata to building platforms and partnerships across borders, PromotEdge is proving that smart, culturally rooted marketing can travel far and deliver real impact. The agency is clearly gearing up for an even bigger chapter ahead.
