Commenting on their new undertaking, Navkiran Singh, CEO, PokerBaazi.com, said, “This comes as part of our endeavour to expand and grow online gaming in India as a whole. Fantasy cricket has a huge scope in a cricket crazy country like India. Seeing a huge market potential and a very passionate and driven team of BalleBaazi, we decided to go ahead with fantasy sports. The synergy between our teams will certainly help us propel BalleBaazi to the top.”

Elucidating the same thought, Puneet Dua, Director, BalleBaazi.com, said, “BalleBaazi has some new Batting & Bowling fantasy formats. These are shorter and more fun to play as compared to the existing popular classic fantasy game. Someone like PokerBaazi joining us at this time is a huge boost for BalleBaazi. Navkiran and his team have built a trustworthy poker brand in the country and I am confident that this association will lead us to the top of fantasy gaming in India."
