We believe in building a global presence and promoting community engagement through the sport and the T20 World Cup has helped us come miles ahead from where we were just two months back. We are thrilled to share this journey of introducing Oman in the world of cricket with Gozoop. The team at Gozoop has a proven pedigree in building global brands and doing iconic campaigns that delight audiences which I am sure will benefit Oman Cricket and enhance Oman’s image in the minds of the global audience,”
