    MUMBAI: JetSynthesys, a Pune-based digital and technology company, has partnered with Sachin Tendulkar to launch a one of its kind game on cricket, ‘Sachin Saga Warm Up’ under its gaming arm Playizzon.

    As part of the association, Tendulkar will train the players to gain expertise in playing the game. ‘Sachin Saga Warm Up’ is a 2:2:2 (2 player, 2 over, 2 minute) batting game, where players across the globe can compete in real time.

    This 2 minute powerplay allows users to get assistance from Tendulkar himself on shot selection based on where the ball pitches and what kind of delivery it is. The game targets users between the age group of 8– 45 years. The company plans to launch the game in 7 languages.

    Tendulkar added, “The game will serve as a prequel to ‘Sachin Saga’ where gamers across age groups can play an exciting new format of cricket digitally! I look forward to receiving the feedback as users play each delivery on its merit.”

    The advertisement-led freemium model game will allow users to make in-app purchases. It will also give fans a chance to win official signed merchandize. The winner of the game with maximum points will be rewarded by Sachin Tendulkar during the launch of ‘Sachin Saga’ later this year.

    Rajan Navani, vice chairman of JetSynthesys, said, “We’re truly excited to announce Playizzon’s latest game Sachin Saga Warm Up, which will serve to be a community builder for the blockbuster game Sachin Saga out later this year. We feel the uniqueness of the 2-2-2 concept comes out beautifully through this game in today’s fast paced digital world when attention span and time are drastically reduced.”

    The game is currently launched on the Google Play Store and will soon be available on iOS.
