MS Dhoni is PokerStars India’s New Brand Ambassador

Poke๊rStars India has signed former captain of the Indian cricket team, Mahendra Singh Dhoni (MS Dhoni), as its new brand ambassador, .

The announcement of the endorsement deal was 🌸delayed due to COVID-19’s impact on the world and postponement of the Indian Premier League (IPL) and other sports events.

The brand posted on facebook, ‘We welcome Mahendra Singh (MS) Dhoni to join Ind꧂ia’s home of online poker.’

PokerStars India’s move to get Dhoni on board is aimed at increasi🌳ng its market share in the industry, as the cricket veteran has a fan following among millions of Indians. Currently, the brand is at rank four for player traffic among poker sites.

As per a report by PokerGuru, talking about PokerStars India’s association with the cricket star, Ankur Dewani, CEO, Sachiko Gaming, said, “We continually review and create partnerships that we believe resonate with our audiences. We want to p🤪resent new exciting ways for our players to interact with us, and one such development is the signing of former Indian cricket captain and world-renowned sportsman MS Dhoni as an ambassador for PokerStars.in. We have been working on this partnership for some time and believe that the signing of MS Dhoni brings something brand new to poker. We have a lot planned for the future, so watch this space. In the meantime, I would like to take this opportunity to publicly welcome MS Dhoni aboard,”

Before Dhoni, Nawazud🐈din Siddiqui endorsed the 🐼brand on Television and social media. Other ambassadors of PokerStarts India include Muskan Sethi and Sharad Rao, while Aditya Agarwal quit the 🐎brand in 𓆏December 2019.

Dhoni got associated with the iGaming industry when he was signed as the brand ambassador of the fan🐷tasy sports platform Dream11 in March 2018.
