And I don\u2019t just say this for the sake of it. I really do love cricket. I have arm twisted and forced people around me to do cricket and cricket based stuff for years. And now, I can proudly say, I told you so. OMLogic is proud (extremely proud) to be the digital partner for vivo mobiles, the official sponsor of the IPL 2016 and beyond. Now, this is exciting for two reasons. Firstly, we get to work with a company who is now claimed Pepsi\u2019s playground which they held so dearly for 5 years and secondly, because it\u2019s Cricket!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A lot of work that has been done in the past at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.omlogic.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">OMLogic<\/a> had cricket as the central idea. And more than that, those were ideas that I believed in and was ready to do all the hard work it took to realise them. From applications to communities with a healthy following and running campaigns which gained a healthy participation from the crowd, we\u2019ve been there, done that and enjoyed every bit of it. And now it\u2019s time to get back in the game and change it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And to be associated with IPL in some form, it\u2019s incredible. IPL is one event which has replaced Diwali as the biggest advertising festival of India. It\u2019s a common point that ties us all together. It combines cricket and bollywood and politics and drama and melodrama and partying and all else. This is what everyone eagerly waits for- that\u2019s the love India has for the sport and we\u2019ll work to make it just as grand. It\u2019s time to CHANGE THE GAME with vivo\u00a0mobile.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Happy. Proud.
