Sara Tendulkar Joins GEPL as Mumbai Franchise Owner for Season 2

JetSynthesys, a leader in digital entertainment and technology, is excited to announce that Sara Tendulkar has joined the Global e-Cricket Premier League (GEPL) as the Mumbai franchise owner for its upcoming Season 2.

GEPL, the world’s largest e-cricket and entertainment league, is played on Real Cricket, a game that has garnered over 300 million lifetime downloads. Since its first season, the league has grown exponentially, experiencing a fivefold increase in player registrations, from 200,000 in Season 1 to 910,000. With a multiplatform reach of over 70 million and more than 2.4 million minutes of streamed content on JioCinema and Sports18, GEPL has firmly established itself as a leader in cricket esports.

Sara’s acquisition of the Mumbai franchise underscores her connection to the region and aligns with the league’s focus on regionalisation, innovation, and the growing esports sector. Her entry into the GEPL ecosystem, alongside a group of entrepreneurs from India’s new generation, further strengthens the league’s commitment to revolutionising competitive gaming and enhancing cricket fandom in the digital age.

Mr. Rajan Navani, CEO & Founder of JetSynthesys, commented: “We are thrilled to welcome Sara Tendulkar as the franchise owner of the Mumbai team. Sara is a true representation of the new Gen Z creator and influencer ecosystem in India, a critical driver of the future of this country. Her deep-rooted interest in sports and esports, coupled with her immense popularity, makes her an ideal partner in our mission to take esports to the masses. This collaboration will help us expand GEPL’s reach, connect with fans from all walks of life, and create new grassroots opportunities for aspiring players.”

Miss Sara Tendulkar, sharing her excitement, said: “Cricket has been an integral part of our family. Exploring its potential in e-sports is thrilling. Owning the Mumbai franchise in GEPL is a dream come true, merging my passion for the game with my love for the city. I'm eager to collaborate with our talented team to build a beloved e-sports franchise that inspires and entertains.”

Mr. Rohit Potphode, CEO & League Commissioner of GEPL, added: “Having Sara Tendulkar join as the franchise owner of Mumbai is a watershed moment for GEPL. Her vibrant presence and strong connect with fans will undoubtedly elevate the league’s stature. With Season 2 set to be bigger and more competitive, her involvement will help drive even greater engagement in e-cricket sports.”

Building on its successful debut, GEPL Season 2 will introduce expanded team formats and advanced league dynamics, offering an enhanced competitive experience with elite players and cutting-edge gameplay powered by Real Cricket 24, known for its strategic depth and realism. The season will culminate in a high-stakes grand finale in May 2025, where the top teams will battle for the coveted title of ‘e-Cricket Icon’ on the global stage.

With Sara Tendulkar’s involvement, GEPL is set to push boundaries, bridging sports, entertainment, and technology to shape the future of cricket esports.
