Speaking on the unveiling Hemant Dua, CEO, Delhi Daredevils explained, "Quikr has become a ground breaking company in the online classified space and we at the Daredevils are truly excited with this partnership.  It is the coming together of brands that share similar values on an ideal platform where speed, success and teamwork rule and believe it will be the beginning of a long association. Creatigies Communications and Havas Media played a key role in making this partnership happen, we appreciate their efforts."

The partnership will initially be for a three year period with both sides confident of a long term relationship.

Pranay Chulet, Founder & CEO, Quikr said, “We are excited to partner with DD. Much like our business, T20 games are all about succeeding at speed. The idea is to score quikr and win quikr, and we feel we have a great meeting of minds between Quikr and DD on that."
