DraftKings is challenging 20 English and Australian bettors to battle it out across five sports in its Ashes 2020 competition.

The inspiration behind the contests is the renowned Ashes Cricket series which is a fiercely competitive showdown between Australia and England over five matches, called Tests.

In DraftKings’ spin on the Ashes, the five Test series (contest) will be run across five different sports available on DraftKings.

Ten existing DraftKings players will be selected from each respective country to fly the flag for Australia or UK with two captains leading the teams.

Each team of 10 players is battling over a total of $10K being offered in cash prizes, with both daily and cumulative leaderboards.

The DraftKings Ashes will be run over a one-week period with the following contests:

 

9/8  NBA

10/8 – CS:GO – E-Sports

12/8 – Soccer – Champions League

13-16/8 – PGA Wyndham Championship

14/8 – AFL

 

“The Ashes cricket series is fiercely contested between Australia and England and inspired us to run our own DraftKings Ashes competition. The rivalry between our two teams is already heating up and will no doubt reach similar heights as its cricketing namesake. We are excited for the contest to kick off and to watch the players compete for the prestigious title. 

 “As a digital sports entertainment and gaming company we aim to fuel the competitive spirits of fans and this initiative will help further drive engagement from both our existing customers and sports enthusiasts around the globe.”— Jeffrey Haas, SVP of International Strategy at DraftKings

Award-winning sportsbook provider strengthens LATAM presence by integrating with leading iGaming platform ecosystem ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup

2, June 2026: Altenar, a leading sportsbook provider, has partnered with Atlaslive to integrate its fully managed sportsbook into the company’s iGaming platform ecosystem, expanding access to its award-winning sports betting technology for operators across Latin America.

Through the integration, Atlaslive-powered operators will gain access to Altenar’s complete sportsbook solution alongside the platform’s existing infrastructure, enabling operators to choose the sportsbook configuration that best aligns with their market strategy, regulatory requirements, and player acquisition goals.

The partnership further strengthens Altenar’s presence across LATAM and supports its strategy of making flexible, high-performance sportsbook technology available through leading platform providers. By combining Altenar’s sportsbook capabilities with Atlaslive’s scalable platform environment, operators benefit from greater deployment flexibility without compromising on performance, trading depth, or operational efficiency.

With the 2026 FIFA World Cup approaching, demand for scalable and reliable sportsbook technology is expected to increase significantly. The integration positions operators to capitalise on one of the highest-volume periods in the sports betting calendar with reduced implementation timelines and a proven sportsbook solution designed to perform under peak demand.

Altenar currently operates across more than 50 regulated jurisdictions and holds licences from major regulatory authorities including the UKGC, MGA and AGCO.
