Content creators' cricket league held in Chattogram

Presented by Spider Studio, the Content Creators Cricket League unfolded in Chattogram on November 20 and 21 at the Fortune Sports Arena. This exciting event brought together various content creators, including food vloggers, travel vloggers, makeup and beauty artists, influencers, and more, all converging as participants in this spirited tournament.

The tournament featured six teams, each consisting of nine players, organised into two groups, with three teams in each group. The initial day witnessed intense matches in the group rounds, leading to the selection of two teams from each group for the semi-final round. On November 21, the semifinals and finals unfolded in a vibrant display of sportsmanship. The ultimate triumph went to 'Team Shovan,' securing the champion trophy, while 'Team Jitt' claimed the Runner-up position.

Mahadi Hasan Fahim, Mr World Bangladesh 2019, participated in the tournament. He said, "This is the first time we have that type of tournament in Chattogram. As a participant, I wish that this type of event should continue in the future so that we can stay closer with each other. To the content creators, my suggestion will be to work in a coordinated way, because it helps them to represent their work to a vast number of people."

"Also I think that there is an economic significance of such works as there is a financial value as well as the business organisations can promote their products through those contents," he added.

Md Asif Ahammed Shovan, admin of Chittainga Bullet, said, "First of all, this is my pleasure to participate here. I think this tournament is significant for different reasons. For example, most of the audiences of the content creators of Chattogram are limited within this region. But such a type of event will help to introduce them to a vast number of people across the country."

He further said, "Chattogram has some mega projects now. And I believe that the content creators can represent those places in a constructive way through their content or documentary. It may be helpful to introduce ourselves to the home and abroad which will be a matter of pride for us."

Zisan Shikder, content creator, said, "I basically cover the street interview. Today I see many content creators participate in the tournament. It becomes an alliance for us. My message to the content creators is that you are representing your creativity to the people. So, try to share the creativity in such a way, so that it gains popularity not only to the native country, but also to the cross-cultural people."

Sanjida Islam Sayma, brand promoter, said, "We are very happy to participate in this tournament. I believe that this type of event will enhance our bonding and thus we will be able to do our work much more broadly than before."

These content creators play a crucial role in adding value to brands and companies. Through their engaging and diverse content, they facilitate brands in reaching their targeted audience effectively.

Moreover, content creators contribute to the creation of valuable audiovisual content for social and digital media platforms, bringing entertainment and information to a wider audience. The Content Creators Cricket League in Chattogram not only celebrated sportsmanship but also highlighted the multifaceted talents of those who play a pivotal role in shaping online content and influencing diverse audiences.
