India, Aug. 26 -- The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) said on Monday that Dream11 has pulled out as jersey sponsor of the India cricket team and that the board was now searching for a new sponsor. "Our association with Dream11 is over after the new legislation has come into force," BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia told HT, referring to the law enacted banning real money gaming. Asked if BCCI was confident of finding a new sponsor ahead of the Asia Cup, he said: "We are working with a positive mind." A telecom major, global car manufacturer and a fintech firm have expressed interest in becoming the sponsor. P18
