The Virat Kohli-led Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) have managed to rope in yet another high-profile sponsor ahead of IPL 2020. The RCB squad for IPL 2020 has a perfect mix of Indian as well as overseas stars up their ranks, which makes the franchise an attractive option for brands. The franchise brings a considerable value for its partners along with significant exposure as the team has enjoyed a strong brand loyalty with its wide fanbase over the years.

The brand wants its consumers to be a part of the excitement that the IPL 2020 will bring along, as per Singh. RCB chairman Sanjeev Churiwala also feels the ethos of both the brands are similar as they look to promote sports participation amongst youngsters and the association will further enhance their proposition.
