Remit2India sole sponsor for IPL on YouTube in US

All the action and excitement of the Indian Premier League (IPL) Season III will be streamed onto the computer screens of cricket fans across the US on YouTube in association with Remit2India, which announces its official partnership with the popular video-streaming website today.

Remit2India, India's leading online remittance service, will be the sole sponsor for the US feed of the Indian Premier League (IPL) Season III on YouTube, which will broadcast all the action of the final four matches of the season. The semi-finals, third place playoff and IPL final matches can be viewed by cricket fans across the US for free via the official IPL Channel on YouTube (www.youtube.com/ipl) with sponsorship from Remit2India. This is the first time that YouTube will stream a mega sporting event like IPL 2010 in United States.

Speaking on the occasion, Avijit Nanda, President, TimesofMoney, said "Cricket is a religion for many, not just in India, but across the globe. By partnering with YouTube for streaming of IPL semis and finals across US, we will be able to bring cricket fans closer to the action in India. Remit2India has always endeavoured to become the mainstay for the global NRI community by being a part of such path-breaking initiatives."

YouTube's IPL channel has received more than 40 million views so far for the league matches from almost every country in the world. The US is second only to India in total views for the IPL Channel on YouTube.
