After a long wait IPL is finally happening. However, fans left unimpressed with BCCI’s decision of retaining China-based electronics manufacturer Vivo as IPL 2020 sponsor. Although, after facing backlash Vivo has decided to pull out as the title sponsor of the cash-rich league. Chinese company’s decision has opened a window for IPL new sponsor.

In 2017, Vivo had paid Rs. 2200 crore to BCCI for a five-year deal.

However, the mobile company is keen to continue the deal with BCCI in 2021.

Buju’s is currently Indian Cricket Team’s jersey sponsor and has also replaced Nokia as Kolkata Knight Riders’ jersey sponsor this year. KKR’s co-owner Shah Rukh Khan is currently the brand ambassador of the company.

Coca-Cola India is also evaluating its plans to sponsor the IPL. “We continue to stay invested in cricket and (are) observing how the situation evolves. We are awaiting more details before taking a decision,” the company said in an emailed reply.
