BLITZPOOLS, one of India’s fastest-growing skill-based fantasy sports platforms, having added over 1MM new customers since launch in March of this year, has signed 6 new rising stars to Team BLITZ, its Brand Ambassador Team. 

Team BLITZ has added 5 cricketers with Chetan Sakariya, Ishan Porel, Riyan Parag, Avesh Khan, and Shardul Thakur joining the team. Indian goalkeeper Dheeraj Singh has also joined the platform. 

Team BLITZ was formed in 2020 when Ishan Kishan, Rahul Chahar, Shreyas Gopal, and Wriddhiman Saha were the first sign-on. Their charisma, winning attitudes and on-field successes led to strong customer engagement across all BLITZPOOLS channels including the website, mobile app, and all social channels. 

These gentlemen were subsequently joined by Rahul Tewatia, Shahrukh Khan, and Mohammed Shami. These new signings generated tremendous excitement and have led to an explosion in new player growth.

All members of Team BLITZ will be an integral part of the BLITZPOOLS marketing strategy: 360-degree online/offline campaign across all marketing channels. They will be highly active on social in the weeks leading up to the re-launch of IPL (September) and will drive both signup and engagement numbers across the site.

The BLITZPOOLS app itself has rapidly become a market favorite due to the compelling user engagement activities offered tightly integrated app experience, and player-focused support and customer services. 

Speaking on the addition of 1 MM users since launch, the Assomull brothers, Vickram and Gaurav, founders of BLITZPOOLS said, “We started this exciting journey just a few months back with the rebrand and we are happy to see the progress BLITZPOOLS has made in such a short period of time. It is a proud feeling for us that we have added over 1MM users to our platform, validating that our customers feel the same way about the product as we do and we are confident we will continue to deliver against the high expectations of the market."

"We have always believed in raw and fresh talent and our partnership with these 6 rising stars is a testimony to what our brand stands for. We will have more partnerships like this in the future to ensure that Team BLITZ continues to resonate with customers and represents the brand admirably as all our current ambassadors have done and continue to do. With Euro 2020 and the World Test Championship between India & New Zealand and the IPL and ICC Word T20 tournament to come we will continue to entertain current and future customers alike.”
