STATSCORE has announced an upcoming data coverage deal for the Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL).
Described as one of India’s most prestigious regional cricket competitions, the news follows the recently concluded IPL season which provided bookmakers with profits, further boosted by STATSCORE’s live data coverage of all 74 matchups.
