EDINBURGH, Scotland, March 27, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — BetDEX Labs Inc. (or “BetDEX”) today announced that the BetDEX Exchange will be introducing cricket markets to the platform this week.

The launch of cricket markets via the Indian Premier League, the men’s Twenty20 cricket league in India contested by 10 teams across 7 cities, is a key milestone for the BetDEX Exchange, as it brings one of the world’s most popular leagues to the BetDEX community. Last year, the IPL captured 229 million television viewers in the first week of the season, with the league itself estimated to be one of the highest valued sports leagues worldwide.

Varun Sudhakar, CEO and Co-Founder of BetDEX, commented on today’s news: “The addition of IPL on the BetDEX Exchange is an exciting milestone and a celebration of the ongoing expansion of our betting markets. Adding the IPL has been a key goal of the team as we continue to add more sports markets across the globe for our community.”
