Stake.com and Cognizant Major League Cricket have signed a multi-year partnership that will see the world's biggest crypto betting site support MLC’s second later this year.

The new MLC season starts on July 4 with some of the world’s best players set to participate in the T20 format tournament.

In a press release, MLC said the collaboration will help "enhance the overall experience, engaging cricket fans with innovative, exciting contests."

Stake will sponsor the MVP of the Tournament award as part of the deal.

Akhil Sarin, Chief Marketing Officer for Stake.com, said, "We thoroughly enjoyed MLC’s inaugural season in 2023 and jumped at the chance to become an Official Partner for 2024 and beyond. With the T20 World Cup taking place on US soil later in the year, we see this as a breakout year for cricket in the US and can’t wait to be a part of it."
