Fixtures & Events Writer

Writing for Fairplay since 2023

Covers the cricket calendar tournament by tournament, so the schedule pages stay current.

Devika Rao is the working byline for this beat on the Fairplay content desk — a fixed specialist and voice assigned to events content, published without an individual photo.

Background

Devika covered domestic cricket for a regional sports desk for three years before moving into fixture and preview writing. She joined Fairplay in 2023 and now owns the tournament pages, from IPL to the T20 World Cup to WPL.

Experience

Her background is in match reporting rather than betting copy, and it shows in how she writes: fixtures, venues and squad notes come first, with the betting angle added after. When a match gets rescheduled she updates the page by hand rather than waiting on a feed to catch up.

Covers

  • IPL
  • ICC tournaments
  • WPL
  • The year-round fixture list
