I might have retired from playing, but I remain deeply passionate about the game and look forward the challenge of playing directly with millions of cricket fans. The app is fun and a great test of your tactical skills and cricketing knowledge.”

Commenting on the association, Kieron Pollard, who has a huge fan following in India and is a marquee player in the IPL, said, "Cricket in India is a religion and the passion that the people of India have towards the game is unparalleled. Now with the matches being played in empty stadiums, the app gives me a chance to play with these passionate Indian fans and have fun while playing against each other. It’s our fans who keep us motivated to give our best both on and off the field and Howzat.com is full of intelligent and fun-loving fans, I hope the fans will love playing against the legends"
