Arizona Tribune - Interlink Congratulates LA Knight Riders on Historic First US MLC Championship

The Interlink Group celebrates this landmark achievement alongside headline sponsors FuelHero.Ai, a portfolio company of The Interlink Group, and CA Business Bank, an affiliate of the firm, both of which served as headline sponsors throughout the championship-winning season.

This monumental victory closely follows the July 1, 2026, opening of the Knight Riders Cricket Ground, LA at Fairplex in Pomona, California - the franchise's permanent home venue, which is also slated to host Olympic cricket at the 2028 Los Angeles Games.

"We are incredibly proud to congratulate our partners, the Los Angeles Knight Riders, on this monumental and hard-fought championship," said Shezad Rokerya, Executive Chairman of The Interlink Group. "This historic win, achieved with the support of our headline sponsors FuelHero.Ai and CA Business Bank, highlights the incredible synergy of vision, elite execution, and sports enterprise innovation. We look forward to witnessing the franchise continue to elevate the sport on the global stage as we approach the 2028 Olympic Games."

"We are proud to partner with organizations like California Business Bank and FuelHero.ai that share our commitment to the long-term growth of cricket in the United States. While California Business Bank has played an important role in strengthening our connection with the local community and economy, FuelHero.ai has brought a spirit of innovation to the partnership. Both have been valued partners throughout the Los Angeles Knight Riders' title-winning season, and we appreciate their support, belief in our vision, and belief in the franchise's long-term potential," said Venky Mysore, CEO of Knight Riders Sports.
