Jasmeet Gandhi, Head – Services & Devices OPM, said, “The entire nation is abuzz with the World Cup fever and we are happy to be associated with ESPN to reach out to our cricket-loving consumers.  The widget will enable cricket lovers to stay on top of their game, providing them with live news feeds, scores, video clips and much more.
