Vaibhav Sooryavanshi is yet to play his first international match for India, but he is already creating a huge buzz off the field. The teenage batting sensation is still using a bat without any sponsor's sticker during the ongoing T20I series against Ireland, and the reason behind it has finally been revealed.
It is not like that; the companies are not interested in signing the Bihar lad. In fact, several tyre companies have shown strong interest in becoming Vaibhav’s new bat sponsor. However, both sides have not been able to agree on the money, and that is why the deal is still not final.
As reported by CricBlogger, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi's management is asking for a sponsorship deal worth at least ₹12 crore every year. But the companies involved in the talks are reportedly not ready to go beyond ₹6 crore per year. Because of this huge gap, the deal has not yet been finalised. Amid this, Abhishek Sharma shares dressing room details on Vaibhav Sooryavanshi.
This demand has slowed down the negotiations with the interested companies. Even if the final deal is signed for ₹6 crore a year, it will still be a massive jump for the teenage batting sensation. Before this, Vaibhav was reportedly earning around ₹50 lakh every year from his previous bat sponsor. So, a ₹6 crore deal would increase his sponsorship earnings by almost 12 times.
Earlier, some tyre companies were reportedly ready to spend big to sign the young cricketer. But after taking another look at the business side of the deal, they have become more careful about spending such a huge amount. Because of this, Vaibhav's management team and the interested companies are now trying to find a middle ground.
Vaibhav Sooryavanshi's previous sponsor still in race
It is also believed that the people managing Vaibhav's commercial deals want him to receive a deal that matches the excitement and popularity he has created at such a young age. They reportedly do not want him to sign a contract that they feel is below his market value.
Vaibhav's previous bat sponsor is also reportedly interested in keeping the left-hander, but it is still not known whether the company can match the amount that his team is asking for. So, Vaibhav continues to play with a plain bat without any sponsor's logo.
New sponsor soon, India debut next?
However, reports suggest that a new sponsor is likely to be finalized before India's tour of England. Meanwhile, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi is still waiting for his India debut, and many are now eager to see whether captain Shreyas Iyer and head coach Gautam Gambhir will include him in the playing XI for the second and final T20I against Ireland on Sunday, June 28, in Belfast. Recently, S Sreesanth recalled a heated clash with Gautam Gambhir.
India lost the first T20I by 34 runs, which means the second match has become a must-win game for the Men in Blue on the Ireland tour. If the team management decides to make changes, Vaibhav could finally get the opportunity to wear the India jersey for the first time and script history. He would become the youngest player to play for India if he make debut on Sunday.
