Here¡¯s Why I Always Order Groceries During An IPL Match (Hint: Big Rewards!) & Now My Friends Do Too!

Going to the supermarket? Nope.

Asking someone to pick up groceries for me? Not at all.

Ordering groceries during an IPL match? That¡¯s more my style!

Even though I¡¯ve been buying online groceries for over 2 years now, coming across Swiggy Instamart was truly life-changing. Yogurt, nachos, fresh veggies or milk - one click and the goodies find their way home, in just about 30 minutes!

But hey, you must be wondering why I only order during IPL matches, the answer lies in their exciting #MatchTheScore contest.

All you need to do is place an order on Swiggy Instamart of the exact same value as the 1st innings score. Lucky entries stand a chance to get discount coupons and also the opportunity to win 2 VIP match passes (and air tickets!!) to the next IPL match. How exciting is that!

Wondering how to participate? Just follow these 4 simple steps -

Step 1 - Monitor The Score!

Watch out for the batting team¡¯s score after the first 20 overs, or until they get all-out. Basically, the score of the first innings is of primary importance here!

Step 2 - Time To Place The Order

Once you¡¯re done adding items to cart, make sure the final value of your Swiggy Instamart order (after all discounts, promo codes, etc) is exactly equal to the score of the batting team in the first innings. You can place this order within 2 hours of the first innings.

So far so good?

Step 3 - Now It¡¯s Time To Get Onto Instagram

You must now DM (direct message) a screenshot of the final Instamart order on @swiggy_instamart on Instagram along with the contest hashtag #MatchTheScore.

Don¡¯t forget to follow their Instagram page, or your entry won¡¯t be valid.

Step 4 - Sit Back & Let Swiggy Instamart Surprise You!
