Daraz has announced an exclusive relationship with the International Cricket Council (ICC) to broadcast the most important cricket tournament of the year. Through this arrangement, Daraz’s app users will be able to access all of the tournament’s matches from any location through the usage of the app. To that end, in September 2021, the shopping site debuted Daraz Live, which featured cutting-edge technology that introduced the concept of “shoppertainment” to customers. Through this cooperation on their app, Daraz, which has a monthly user base of 15 million users and is growing, hopes to attract even more people.
“Cricket is the most-watched sport in our country, and we want all Pakistanis to be able to follow cricket from anywhere in the world using their mobile phones,” said Muhammad Ammar Hassan, Chief Marketing Officer of Daraz Pakistan. We hope to raise awareness of Daraz Live, which is our innovative live commerce platform that allows customers to watch cricket while also shopping online at the same time.

Given the massive popularity of cricket in the South Asian region, it provides an excellent platform for Daraz to engage with the region’s ardent fans and propel the brand to the next level of growth.
