Mahindra & Mahindra has announced that it is expanding its cricketing association with Star Sports by becoming an Associate Sponsor for the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023 and a 'co-powered by' sponsor on the digital platform, Disney+ Hotstar. This is one of Mahindra's most significant forays into sports sponsorships.

The ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023, which will coincide with India's festive spirit, presents a golden opportunity for Mahindra to connect with a vast audience.
