Good morning [%first_name |Dear Reader%],

Exactly 280 days ago, The Ken published the first edition of Moneyball, a first-of-its-kind weekly newsletter on the business of sport in India. It was a shot in the dark, since sports business is a subject that has never quite received the kind of in-depth coverage it deserves in India.

But over the last 39 editions, I’ve been thrilled with the kind of response I received from readers like you. Whether it was on private equity in sport, cricket broadcast rights, the renaissance of Formula One, the business of chess, or the murky world of online betting. I’m super chuffed that there is an audience in India for the continuously expanding and extremely action-packed world of sports business.

Which is why I’m rather sad to be writing this—today’s edition, the 40th (wow!), will be the last one of Moneyball. This is happening because I’m moving on from The Ken. So, thank you once again, dear reader, for bearing with me for the last nine months. I can honestly say it’s been an amazing ride.

Oh, and if you’re wondering what’s in store for you as a subscriber of The Ken’s newsletter bundle, buckle up and watch this space.
