Myntra will also host a range of the latest cricket merchandise on the store, and give ardent fans a chance to get their hands on the latest RCB jersey to join the excitement.

    Speaking on the association, Myntra CEO Amar Nagaram said, “The appeal for fashion and sports cuts across geographies. This powerful convergence is set to bring style and fashion to one of the most glamorous sporting events, like never before. It gives us the perfect platform to connect with a varied set of audiences who bond over the spirit of T20 cricket that is considered a festival in itself. This is definitely going to be a special season as it is one of the biggest annual sporting events happening since the pandemic started. This event marks an opportune occasion to reaffirm our marketing efforts and drive strong salience among fans as one of the leading brands for fashion and lifestyle.”

    Speaking of the partnership, Royal Challengers Bangalore chairman Sanjeev Churiwala said, “We are delighted to partner with Myntra, the leading e-commerce platform for fashion in India. RCB shares the same ethos of being a cutting edge lifestyle brand and this association further helps enhance the proposition.”
