The prizes include Kolkata Knight Riders merchandise, free downloadable games, cricket kits, Gameplex coupons and Game CDs.
Commenting on the initiative, Sanjay Purohit, director – marketing, Cadbury India said “Cricket is on everybody’s mind nowadays and we wanted to reach out to our TG in the digital space via this cricket fever. This property together with Zapak.com will cater to all cricket lovers and help them experience a never before cricket league.”
