It provides the most exciting coverage of a variety of sporting events, both national and international, in a style that’s engaging, to the point, and easy to read.”

Shared Dmitry Belianin, chief marketing officer of PMI, “We at Parimatch News are delighted to welcome Dinesh Karthik as brand ambassador. Dinesh has lit up the IPL this year and continues to be an example to the youth of India, in the way he plays the game and in his infectious personality. We believe he will be a fantastic asset for us.”

For Parimatch News, the signing of Karthik is another step towards adding to its family of Indian fans, and expanding its reach in the country. With users in India looking to consume their sports and entertainment news in byte-sized chunks, the brand’s up-to-date and lively coverage of sports events makes for an ideal fit.
