Uday Reddy, Founder & CEO of YuppTV, said, “Cricket has always been a massive crowd-puller and IPL has reimagined the format and the excitement associated with it. In alignment to bring cricket to the masses, we are delighted to be the streaming platform of choice in expanding the outreach to 114 nations across the globe.
