List of Team India’s Jersey Sponsors and Kit Manufacturers (1992–2028)
Dream11, the fantasy sports platform, may no longer be the jersey sponsor of the Indian cricket team. This update comes just 16 days before the Asia Cup in the UAE. The change follows the passing of The Promotion and Regulation of Online Gaming Bill, which aims to ban real-money gaming platforms. The bill has already been cleared by both houses of parliament and approved by the President.
Being on the jersey of the Indian team is a huge deal for any brand. Over the years many companies have competed to get their name on the front of the iconic blue jersey. It not only boosts a brand’s value but also adds credibility and gives unmatched reach as millions of fans see it every time the Indian team plays. So far, only six brands have managed to have their names printed on the Indian jersey and each of them has reaped big rewards from that prime spot on the players chests.
