 Announcing the launch of the shop, Prasana Krishnan, Co-Founder of FanCode, said, “Through FanCode Shop, IPL fans across India will have the opportunity to ‘wear their passion’ while cheering for their favourite team from the comfort of their home.

Talking about the partnership, Dheeraj Malhotra, CEO of Delhi Capitals, said, “Delhi Capitals is delighted to have FanCode on board as our Official Merchandise Partner. ‘Fan First’ is an ethos we follow at Delhi Capitals, even in unprecedented scenarios like the current one, where our engagement with fans can be through digital platforms only. We emphasise on being a fan-friendly team, just like FanCode – which is why I am confident about this partnership being a mutually beneficial one for both of us.”

Besides the Shop launch, FanCode recently introduced consumer-first features for sports fans like interactive data overlays, where fans can customise the data they want to see while watching the live stream; the choice and flexibility to subscribe to specific content by introducing Match & Tour passes; and the fastest live scores for cricket with multimedia commentary, including India’s first customised commentary for fantasy sports users.
