As the IPL season grips the nation, the only place that matches the excitement of the playground and perfectly pairs with cricket evenings on the couch is the Zomato app. With Zomato’s own Premier League, everyone not only gets to savour their favourite food but also predict the winner of that day’s match and win rewards.

It has been raining predictions on ZPL– so far, 14 million predictions have been registered from 224 cities, helping ZPL players, aka Zomato users, to save ₹150 million collectively. In view of the ongoing zealous in-app matches, Zomato released a ZPL scoreboard; below are some of the interesting nibbles, votes and wins.

Match summary:

  • Out of 224 cities where Zomato is present in India, CSK is the most voted team in 189 cities. Its biggest supporter is Madurai.
  • While Delhi is the biggest foreteller with 1.5 million predictions, Warangal has made the most correct predictions so far
  • It's interesting to note, Rajasthan has predicted more for CSK than Rajasthan Royals(RR) while, Jammu & Kashmir is cheering for MI
  • Tripura has a cosmic connection with Sunrisers Hyderabad and boasts of 100% win ratio when voting for it.

Coming to some of the most interesting matches in IPL and ZPL:

  • The SRH vs RR match on April 27th received 500,000 predictions- the highest so far.
  • So far, both the matches (April 13th & 20th) between RR & MI have shown Rajasthan winning on the field but losing with their fans in the app.  Rajasthan predicted that MI would win both times, while RR changed the course of the match both times and won.

Talking about food- favourite teams battled on-screen, favourite meals delivered off-screen; watching matches have never been happier for cricket enthusiasts!

  • North Indian cuisine is the most popular choice and the perfect partner for all the steaming match contests in the living room.
  • It’s sweet victory indeed for the Zomato users as they win rewards too! No wonder, ZPL cashback winnings are mostly going to dessert orders.
