Sokin will appear on the front of the team's new men's and women's shirts for the 2026 season of The Hundred and will feature the team's players in campaigns. As part of the deal, MI London will also use Sokin's platform to manage funds. The deal extends Sokin's presence across world sport, which already includes Manchester United, Nottingham Forest and the recently announced Professional Triathletes Organisation. MI London is owned by Surrey County Cricket Club and the Mumbai Indians franchise group which runs cricket teams across four continents, among them the seven-time champions Mumbai Indians and MI New York in Major League Cricket. The partnership has the potential to extend across MIs wider network, giving Sokin activation rights in markets including the UK and US. Through Sokins platform, the team will gain access to Sokin's multi-currency accounts, FX, and treasury capabilities. As a team part-owned by a global franchise group, MI London required a partner with strong domestic and international payment capabilities. Vroon Modgill, CEO and Founder of Sokin, said: MI London is the most successful team in The Hundred, and it's part of a group that runs cricket teams from Mumbai to New York. Cricket is a global game and a growing global business, with money moving across borders for players, staff and partners in every market it touches. That's the work our platform is built for, which is why we want to grow this beyond the shirt and across more of the MI network over time. Oli Slipper, Chair of MI London, said: This is a really important deal for the team, and we're pleased that Sokin will sit on the front of our brand-new shirt. Sokin's global outlook and ambition make them a natural fit for MI London as we grow our presence in the UK and internationally. Just like our teams, Sokin are experts in their field, and we look forward to the new season with their support. Cricket is among the fastest-growing global sports. The game counts more than 2.5 billion fans worldwide, second only to association football, and its showcase events now set digital records: the 2026 Men's T20 World Cup final drew 72.5 million concurrent streamers in India alone, while Indias 2025 Premier T20 tournament season passed 1 billion viewers and 840 billion minutes of watch time. The sport returns to the Olympics at Los Angeles 2028, its first appearance since 1900, in a market central to Sokin's growth. Also Read: Live Cricket Score MI London, formerly the Oval Invincibles, is the most successful team in The Hundred. The women's team won the first two titles in 2021 and 2022, and the men's team won three in a row from 2023 to 2025. The team plays its home matches at The Oval in London.

1st WT20I: Nandni Shines On Debut As India Beat England By 38 Runs
Nandni Sharma: Nandni Sharma's three wickets on international debut followed by half-centuries from Jemimah Rodrigues and Yastika Bhatia, guided India to a 38-run win in the opening game of their three-match T20I series against England here at the County Ground. The 38-run victory is the India women's second-biggest win margin against England in T20ls, after 97 runs at Trent Bridge in 2025. Moreover, Nandni became the second Indian pacer to pick a 3-fer on Women's T20l debut, after Soniya Dabir 3/23 vs ENG-W in Mumbai in 2010. After putting in to bat first, India had a troubled start as Lauren Bell took two wickets in the first over, dismissing opener Smriti Mandhana on a golden duck and Shafali Verma on the last ball of the over, to leave the tourists 7/2. Then Yastika and Rodrigues came to the rescue and shared a century stand (126 off 76) for the third wicket. Playing her first T20I in two years, Yastika struck 54 off 40 balls, her maiden T20I fifty, and Rodrigues slammed a poised 69 off 40. England then bounced to contain the target as Charlie Dean got rid of Yastika before closing out the over with a sharp return catch to remove Rodrigues and give England hope of containing the target. Corteen-Coleman claimed her maiden T20I wicket when Issy Wong grabbed a superb catch running from backward point to collect a reverse-sweep from Richa Ghosh. She then took the ball in the next over and bowled Bharti Fulmali for 6 with a slower ball as the visitors were 148 for 6 in the 17th over. Then a spirited 39-run stand between Deepti Sharma and Arundhati Reddy raised the target before Bell returned to remove Deepti, pulling a short ball straight to midwicket as India posted 188/7 in 19.5 overs. Chasing 189, England had a shaky start as Kranti Goud struck early to dismiss openers Sophia Dunkley (16) and Alice Capsey (6). Heather Knight and Amy Jones then steadied the ship with a 64-run stand for the third wicket stand, which Shree Charani broke in the 14th over, dismissing Knight for 21. An over later, Nandni bagged her maiden international when she removed Jones for 67, which sparked a mini collapse from which England would never recover. On the next ball, Nandni claimed her second when Dani Gibson holed out the next ball and Shafali again did the work in the outfield. The next over saw Deepti getting Freya Camp before Nandni claimed her third as she castled Wong in 18th over. Sophie Ecclestone was run in the penultimate over as England were restricted to 150/8 and fell short of the target as India sealed a win in the opener.
