Team India will participate in the Asia Cup 2025 without a lead sponsor after Dream11 ended its contract due to new online gaming regulations. Consequently, the 'India' logo on the team's jerseys will be more prominent.

The BCCI and Dream11 have ended their partnership following the passage of The Promotion and Regulation of Online Gaming Bill, 2025, which bans money-based online gaming. Dream11 has stopped all paid contests and shifted to a free-to-play model, while My11Circle has also suspended real money games. Both companies affirm their commitment to legal compliance and future updates.

WinZO, one of India's leading social gaming platforms, will withdraw money-based games following the new online gaming bill. The legislation, effective August 22, 2025, prohibits real-money gaming but supports e-sports. WinZO emphasizes its commitment to compliance and innovation, despite the significant regulatory shift. Other gaming firms like Dream11 and Games24x7 are also adapting, signaling a major transformation in India's online gaming sector.
