CEAT tires have always been associated with the IPL. The tire manufacturers have sponsored the strategic timeout. The waiting period of 2.5 minutes takes place 2 times an innings. This waiting period is for the drinks and strategic planning of the game. With so much of a financial structure revolving around this tournament, a 2.5-minute break in the game will cost a loss to the broadcaster, and hence this sponsor was bought in for IPL 2022.
CRED, Swiggy, TATA Neu:
CRED is an exclusive partner for the first 6 overs. The first 6 overs in the TATA IPL 2022 are powerplay overs. CRED is a payments app that offers exclusive deals for its users during that period. This helps CRED to get more users during that period of the game.
Swiggy Instamart is also a sponsor. They have sponsored the last 5 overs. The last 5 overs are also called the death overs. The scoring rate of the batsmen also increases in these final overs. This is synonymous with the quick delivery that Swiggy Instamart offers. This is a unique form of sponsorship. Exclusive offers are given to consumers who use the app to order stuff during these 5 overs of the innings.
The TATA Neu is an amazing service of the TATA Group. The TATA Group is running a promotional campaign by sponsoring the new ball in the IPL games. This is very thoughtful by the team as the word “NEU” sounds similar to “NEW”.
Aramco is the only sponsor for the purple caps and the orange caps. These caps are awarded to the individuals who pick the most wickets and score the most runs in TATA IPL 2022 respectively.
