After a successful international debut in India, 8JJ Sports, a Sri Lanka–based global sports media and fan-engagement platform, is now available in Bangladesh.
The platform aims to give Bangladeshi sports fans a more immersive and community-driven experience across cricket and other major sports worldwide. 8JJ Sports is also in discussions to collaborate with a prominent Bangladeshi sportsperson for the same.
The platform, unveiled last month in Mumbai by former Indian spinner Harbhajan Singh and Indian all-rounder Deepak Chahar, aims to strengthen its footprint across South Asia by bringing an innovative, community-driven sports experience to Bangladeshi fans. The ceremony last month (November) in India saw many Bollywood celebrities attending the event including, Malaika Arora, Zareen Khan and Nawazuddin Siddiqui etc. Designed for modern sports audiences, 8JJ Sports delivers real-time sports news, live scores, expert analysis, and exclusive athlete-focused storytelling across cricket and global sports. The platform also integrates a unique fan community ecosystem where users can share opinions, participate in discussions, and engage with sports conversations more closely than ever before.
Harbhajan Singh and Deepak Chahar, who joined 8JJ Sports as brand ambassadors during the India launch, highlighted the platform’s vision of redefining sports fandom.
Speaking at the India unveiling last week, Harbhajan Singh had said:
“Cricket is not just a sport for me, it is a part of me. 8JJ Sports brings you the vibe of cricket and all sports through a platform made for fans. Share your views, be part of the community — you might even win a signed bat or ball from me. Stay sporty with 8JJ Sports.”
Deepak Chahar added, “If you’re someone who’s always chasing match updates like me, you’re going to love 8JJ Sports. It brings you everything happening in the world of sports along with stories that go beyond the field. Join the community and be a part of something bigger.”The India launch event in Mumbai saw an impressive turnout from the worlds of sports, entertainment, and digital media, with appearances by Harbhajan Singh, Deepak Chahar, Aakash Chopra, and a distinguished list of film and television personalities including Malaika Arora, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Krystle D’Souza, Zareen Khan, and others.
With Bangladesh emerging as one of the world’s most passionate cricketing nations, 8JJ Sports aims to offer fans a dynamic and immersive sports content ecosystem tailored for the country’s vibrant and growing audience.
