OPPO India Introduces OPPO Premier League 2026

OPPO India has announced the launch of the OPPO Premier League (OPL) 2026, a new internal cricket league aimed at strengthening employee engagement and collaboration across its partner ecosystem. The initiative marks OPPO India’s first large-scale, sports-led programme designed to bring together employees and industry partners through a shared passion for cricket.

The OPPO Premier League 2026 officially kicks off today with an Opening Day ceremony in Noida, India. The tournament is scheduled to run through March 2026 and will feature participation from 23 partner organisations across the industry. Companies taking part include Haier, Dixon, vivo, Lava, XIHU Tech, BPL, and several others associated with OPPO’s broader business ecosystem.

According to OPPO, the league has been designed as a culture-led initiative rather than a conventional internal engagement programme. By encouraging teams from different organisations to compete on the field, OPPO aims to build camaraderie, promote healthy competition, and foster a more inclusive and energetic workplace environment. The company says the initiative also reflects its long-standing relationships with industry partners beyond formal business collaboration.

Commenting on the launch, Rakesh Bhardwaj, Board Member and Director of Public Affairs at OPPO India, said the OPPO Premier League reflects the company’s people-first approach. He added that the tournament is intended to celebrate trust, cross-functional collaboration, and shared purpose by bringing OPPO’s extended ecosystem together in a competitive yet collaborative setting.
