CEAT signs bat deal with cricketer Mayank Agarwal

MUMBAI: Tyre maker CEAT has signed bat sponsorship deal with upcoming Indian cricketer Mayank Agarwal. He will now be seen playing with a CEAT bat in all formats of the game.

Agarwal made his mark by becoming the top scorer for India at the 2010 Under-19 World Cup. He scored over a 1000 runs in the 2017-18 Ranji Season, which also earned him the Madhavrao Scindia Award that is presented to the highest run-scorer in the season.


He also made a dream Test debut against Australia during the Border - Gavaskar Series on Boxing Day, December 26, 2018, where he went on to score 76 runs in his first innings of the match.
