Arguably one of the most loved and revered sports personalities this country MS Dhoni is touted as one of the all-time legends of the gentleman’s game. He attained great heights as a captain over the years and led India to a World T20 title, World Cup, and a Champions Trophy title in his term as the captain, which lasted almost a decade.

Over the years, he has become the face of many brands and is probably one of the most successful brand endorsers of all time in Indian sporting history. He is tied up with multiple MNCs and is also one of the richest cricketers ever. Many brands firmly believe that Dhoni as their brand ambassador will attract a humongous fan base and earn them a lot of fame.

Some famous brands who have Dhoni as their ambassadors include Reebok, Pepsico, TVS Motors, Reliance Groups, Mysore Sandal, Bharat Petroleum, Titan Sonata, etc. Another famous company which is associated with Dhoni is Spartan, a sports equipment manufacturing company.

Rs. 25 crore sponsorship deal with Spartan

MS Dhoni has a humongous Rs. 25 crore deal with Spartan and is one of the most lucrative contracts amongst all cricketers. Virat Kohli leads the chart as far as this prospect is concerned, who holds a Rs. 100 crore contract with MRF which is spanned over 8 years.

Interestingly, not many know the amount MS Dhoni spends on buying his bats. Although people do get the information through media about his sponsorship deals, not many are wary of how much it costs to buy the kind of bats he uses. Dhoni, as many know, uses a very heavy bat which apparently helps him tonk big sixes with ease.

Each bat used by MS Dhoni costs around INR 32,000 as per the options available on the Spartan website. Thus it is more expensive than buying a One Plus 5 phone, spending a week Goa and even a decent laptop.
