Parimatch Hosts Rooftop Meet & Greet with Sunil Narine
Parimatch has hosted an exclusive meet-and-greet with cricket legend Sunil Narine. Held on March 19, the event titled “Stay at the Top of Your Game” was led by renowned sports anchor MC Russh, giving fans and media a unique opportunity to engage with one of the most exciting bowlers in world cricket.
Hosted at the stunning rooftop venue of Scrapyard Brewing Co. with panoramic views of Kolkata, the session perfectly reflected Narine’s philosophy of always staying at the top of his game.
The event kicked off with a Q&A session where Sunil Narine shared insights into his journey with the Kolkata team, reflecting on his most memorable performances and the passionate support of Riders’s team fans. He spoke about his role in the team and the influence of various captains on his career. Narine also emphasised the importance of brand collaborations in a cricketer’s career and encouraged young players to stay true to their skills.
After the Q&A session there was a Time Wheel split into categories each offering even more exciting questions. The host was spinning the Wheel and Narine answered the questions, keeping the atmosphere vibrant and the audience engaged.
The highlight of the evening was the surprise appearance of Sunil Narine’s double, who asked him a fun and intriguing question: “If you could be at two places at once, where would the real you go—and where would you send me?” This playful moment added a lighthearted touch to the event.
Fans also had the chance to ask Sunil about his journey with Kolkata team, from a dressing room story they hadn’t heard before to whether he enjoys more batting or bowling, and what career he might have chosen if not for cricket.
The event concluded with a memorable photo session with Narine, providing fans with the perfect opportunity to capture the moment with the cricketing icon. In addition to the exciting activities, attendees were given exclusive Parimatch merchandise, making the event even more special.
Reflecting on the session, Sunil Narine commented:
“It’s always a big pleasure to connect with the fans, and I’m really thankful to Parimatch for giving me another chance to get closer to them and share my story. Cricket has given me so much, and I’m excited to give my energy back. I’m pumped for the Indian T20 League and can’t wait to give my best for everyone who’s been supporting me.”

The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) has given gaming affiliates, developers and support service providers until early 2026 to comply with its newly implemented B2B Accreditation Framework, a regulatory system that formalises participation in the iGaming supply chain.
Companies that submit applications by December 31, 2025, will qualify for a three-year initial accreditation, while unaccredited foreign content providers face removal from licensed platforms after March 31, 2026.
The framework, which took effect on October 2, sets mandatory accreditation requirements for all third-party entities providing gaming content, systems or technical support to PAGCOR-licensed operators.
Accreditation covers several categories, including gaming affiliates, game content providers (GCPs) and support service providers (SSPs). Gaming affiliates may act as aggregators that distribute multiple game titles to operators, while GCPs are developers or studios supplying electronic game software or live-streamed content.
Accreditation is valid for two years from the date of PAGCOR Board approval, an increase from the previous one-year term.
Foreign data or content streaming providers that fail to secure accreditation by the March 2026 deadline will have their content deemed “non-compliant and unauthorized.” They may appoint a Philippine-registered company or a PAGCOR-accredited Gaming System Administrator as their exclusive distributor instead of setting up a local office.
PAGCOR has warned that licensed operators using unaccredited service providers may face sanctions.
